| Last tourist activities... |
The last week has arrived, so it is time to complete the training! But first, I want to continue where I ended the story in my last article.
Last time I stopped talking about the field visits at arrival to Bangalore city. The days after our arrival, we visited three more technology incubators in Bangalore and Mysore. Even though the visits to those incubators were not significantly different from the previous ones, they nevertheless added more experience and network exposure to all of us. But there were also very amazing and nice tourist attractions to be visited in these touristic areas. We went for example to an animal park and the Mysore palace of royal family.

| Receiving my diploma |
On Friday, March 29, we complete the fifth week by returning back to Ahmedabad by train in 32 hours. As this time is fewer than the 40 hours spent in train 2 weeks ago, it doesn’t leave any impression any more to me :-) The last week is dedicated to finalizing our programme: we have four more days of training session on the campus and finally the validation of the training on the fifth day of the week. This last week is quite intensive with lecture presentations on promoting sectoral incubators i.e. agri-business incubators and incubators for technology commercialization. We are not only offered important materials, but all those interested in promoting entrepreneurship and innovation through incubation also get the opportunity to receive support for the future steps.

| Two entrepreneurs |
For this I develop and submit an action plan for my short term (year 2013-14) and for my long term intentions (years 20 14-17).
The very last, but for sure not the least experience of the whole training is a presentation from professor Ashok Jhunjhunwal. He is telling his own, very exciting story of how he became one of the very few people who played a decisive role in initiating the current Indian technology development. In short he left from a very comfortable USA university and started working from the scratch with a few friends and finally became very successful. In that sense, he is a role model to me and I will give my best also to develop in the same way after completing the training.
