EdTech platform Practically is all set to collaborate with student-run Entrepreneurship Cell (E-Cell) of the Indian Institute of Technology Bombay (IITB) as the title sponsor of the fifth edition of Eureka! Junior.

Eureka! Junior is a one-of-its-kind business plan competition organised to promote entrepreneurship amongst school students of classes 6 to 12 across India. Launched on August 22, the fifth edition of Eureka! Junior will host National Entrepreneurship Olympiad on Practically’s test platform on October 31.
