Numerous nations have benefited from the contributions of startups, which are essential to National Innovation Systems (NISs) and sustainable growth. According to recent studies, India requires about 100 million jobs annually. Despite their modest size, startups are crucial to the creation of jobs in India. When more jobs are created that generates more income for people and subsequently improves the economy of the country. In the current technological environment, engineering graduates have an advantage when the topic is pertinent to startups. Engineers are capable of rapid growth, possess a solid technical understanding, and have the power to change the world. In the engineering curriculum, the introduction of additional training on entrepreneurship along with technical subjects can help to acquire the skills and know-how supplements to turn their start-up ideas into reality.
