    "content": "need much more than the capital. They need technology transfer. They need skills transfer. We have to critically look at the entire value chain and also look at the education system in this country so that more emphasis is given to technical education and transfer of skills in various sectors of the economy to make the people a bit more innovative. Increasingly, if you look at our system of education, it is more knowledge-based because the focus is more on theory rather than the practical aspects that our youth would be able to use on their own. So, as we emphasise and focus on entrepreneurship, there is need to look at the way we have structured our education system. That is so that as we train our youth, there is need to train them to become a bit more competent or acquire competencies in various areas. We need a competence-based approach rather than a knowledge-based approach to deliver what we require. I have talked of aspects of efficiency in terms of resource input and how that will be converted through business processes to come up with an output. That is why, particularly in the aspect of entrepreneurship, some centres have been set to nurture the talents and the businesses that are cropping up so that, as they get out, they can stand on their own and run well."
