About E-Summit 2026

What is E-Summit 2026?

E-Summit 2026 is Marathwada's first flagship Entrepreneurship Summit, organised by the Entrepreneurship Cell, Jawaharlal Nehru Engineering College (E-CELL JNEC), MGM University. This one-day summit brings together students, startups, investors, industry leaders, and innovators on a single platform to celebrate ideas, innovation, and impact.

As India's startup ecosystem grows beyond metros, E-Summit 2026 is driven by the theme 'Rising Bharatpreneurs.' The theme highlights the rise of young innovators from non-metro and emerging regions who are building impactful, grassroots-driven ventures — creating solutions for real-world problems and shaping an inclusive entrepreneurial future.

What is E-Cell JNEC?

The Entrepreneurship Cell, JNEC (E-Cell JNEC) is the largest entrepreneurship community at MGM University, recognised among the Top 20 E-Cells nationwide (out of 2,500 E-Cells) as per IIT Bombay's National Entrepreneurship Challenge (NEC) 2025 rankings.

With an active community of 1000+ members, E-Cell JNEC works to cultivate an entrepreneurial mindset among students through impactful events, initiatives, and hands-on experiences. We believe in empowering students to go beyond boundaries, enabling them to innovate, lead, and create meaningful change.
