“From Classroom to Boardroom: How ProMove is Turning Students into Founders”

What if schools didn’t just prepare students for exams, but for life?

Take a second to think back to your school or college days. Did you ever get the chance to build something from scratch? Were you ever asked to look around, spot a real problem, and solve it? Most of us weren’t. We were told to memorize chapters, not to explore our curiosity. We were rewarded for right answers, not for asking better questions.

That’s the problem a group of young innovators set out to fix. They looked around and saw millions of students in India, brimming with potential, being trained for tests—not for the future. So they decided to create something new. Something bold. They called it ProMove™.

At its core, ProMove™ is built on a simple but powerful idea: Students shouldn’t have to wait until college graduation to start innovating. They shouldn’t have to wait to build real skills. They can start right now—right inside their schools and colleges.

So what is ProMove™, really?

It’s not an app. It’s not a coaching center. It’s more like a playground for young creators. A startup ecosystem that lives inside classrooms. Instead of asking kids to dream small and follow a preset path, ProMove™ gives them the tools and support to think big, take risks, and try building something real.

From Grade 6 onward, students can join the Startup School, where they get hands-on with real-world problems, pitch solutions, and learn to build like actual entrepreneurs. There are no “final answers”—only better ideas, better execution, and real progress.

And it doesn’t stop there.

There’s the Problem Bank, where students submit things they think are broken in their communities. Broken water taps, food waste, messy traffic—you name it. These aren’t theoretical problems from a textbook. These are real. And ProMove™ helps them form teams and get working on actual solutions.

Then there’s the Instant Internship Program. Imagine a 9th grader interning on a real-world project—not in some big corporate building, but right from their school library. Kids get to collaborate with mentors, solve live problems, and build their portfolio before most adults even start thinking about one.

Colleges aren’t left out either. With the III (Instant Incubation Installation) model, any college can turn into a startup hub—without needing to construct an expensive new building. It’s plug-and-play, fast, and affordable.

But one of the most empowering pieces is the Instant CEO Membership Card. This is a game changer.

It’s a virtual founder’s team that students can tap into. Legal advisors, branding experts, tech mentors, marketing support—all of it, available to help students turn their wild ideas into reality. Why should a 16-year-old with a great idea feel stuck? With this, they don’t have to go it alone.

What makes all of this possible?

ProMove™ is backed by some serious credentials: DPIIT, MSME, ISO 21001 certification, and the Atal Incubation Centre–SKU. It also aligns with the National Education Policy (NEP 2020) and AICTE’s innovation vision. So it’s not just a cool experiment—it’s a recognized, structured, and scalable model for transforming education.

The impact is real. Students walk away not just with certificates, but with confidence. They have stories to tell, products they built, and the experience of having been part of something meaningful.

In a world full of uncertainty, this is the kind of education that matters.

Because at the end of the day, it’s not just about marks—it’s about mindset.
