E-Talk by Nik Bakers





7th Feb'09 saw the inaugural of the Entrepreneur Week at our Chitkara campus where we are celebrating "GO GREEN", The World is Our Business". The day began by taking the pledge to help build an entrepreneurial India, where nearly 100 students from the campus had participated.


As part of our GREENOVATE Event, we had scheduled an E-Talk by one of the most famous entrepreneurs of the city, Nikhil Mittal of Nik Bakers! He was joined by his partner in business and life, Sharon Mittal. We got an insight into the pitfalls and challenges he faced during the start up of Nik Bakers. He discussed how he overcame those difficulties, what mistakes he made and what one should avoid during a start-up! He also touched upon the complexities involved in the baking and food industry as one not only has to meet customer expectations, but go beyond!


Growth is guaranteed when one is passionate about what he is doing, sticks to industry service standards and builds up an excellent customer relationship – Mantra by Nik!


The session was a very interesting one as it was filled with questions from the students and the faculty alike. The best advice that came from him on being asked about studying abroad, was that one should always look for better opportunities to gain knowledge, but one should apply that knowledge back HOME !

The icing on the session was when Nik presented the crowd of nearly a hundred with a huge cake from his renowned Bakery!! The day couldn’t have ended in a sweeter note!
