Let Me Know being a student led initiative actively promotes student ventures. The National Social Entrepreneurship Forum was conceptualized with a vision to inspire people and organizations, who can effectively respond to social challenges to lead the movement for grass-root development. NSEF seeks to promote Social Entrepreneurship through various dimensions such as Internships, Fellowships, Social B-plan competitions, Mentorship, Workshops and Seminars. NSEF inaugurated Samriddhi, its first cell in IIM-Lucknow in August 2009 in association with  Abhiyaan, the Entrepreneurship cell at IIM-L. The first of its kind across any IIMs NSEF plans to start cells across India in collaboration with management schools and engineering colleges to provide different perspectives of the development sector to students . Currently NSEF is looking for Volunteers, who are share its vision and values to lead the movement. We hope that we can see more such organizations in future to promote and sustain the spirit of social entrepreneurship.

Which firm should I work for? Should I visit a university abroad and work with a professor on an interesting research project? Does volunteering with a non-profit seem like a good idea? Can undergrad students get internship offers from at corporations abroad? Are there any summer research opportunities in India?  How about working at a start-up or a youth organization? I am a chemistry student; can I get an internship at an advertising firm?

As these questions hound students every year not just in India but across the world, training and placement cells, google searches and random surfing across websites of universities and corporations come to the rescue. Though these sources and several online portals have been useful, a one-stop solution for the indian student market still remains a dream.

At Let Me Know, we are trying to understand these concepts. Internships, which has been a recently initiated experiment at LMK, has proven to be a very popular category. Technology and Business are not far behind. Analytics and readership are showing us interesting patterns and we hope to deliver what the market wants.

BTW what are you doing next summer!

As I begin writing our first post at the Let Me Know blog, I want to take this opportunity to thank all our users for constantly inspiring us to improve our service and bring Let Me Know to where it stands today. The idea of this blog is to connect more interactively with all our readers and followers – share our journey and hear their experiences with the portal.

We also want to keep our users informed about what we plan to do in terms of creating richer content and better online experiences for them. I would urge all our readers to actively participate in the discussions that start here and share their views and opinions.

Looking forward to having a great journey ahead!
