In most management colleges these days, the maximum stress is given on entrepreneurship. In India, it isn’t actually the easiest affair. It isn’t just about funding, rather funding comes much later. For any woman, there are additional hurdles if anyone is keen on entrepreneurship. Delhi’s Oshikka Lumb is one such fantastic example in this regard.
Oshikka began her journey from Jesus and Mary College, where she pursued her graduation studies and then moved on to the prestigious Lady Shree Ram college for Masters. Today she is an entrepreneur running successful businesses like Markitiers, Events Mosaic and Vizz Plus, and an author of two books.
In most management colleges today, maximum stress is now given on entrepreneurship. In India, it isn’t actually the easiest thing. Not only it is about funding, rather funding comes much later. For any woman, there are additional hurdles if anyone is keen on entrepreneurship. Delhi’s Oshikka Lumb is one such fantastic instance who has been a leading example in this regard.
Oshikka began her journey from Jesus and Mary College, where she pursued her graduation studies and then moved on to the prestigious Lady Shree Ram college for Masters. Today she is an entrepreneur running successful businesses like Markitiers, Events Mosaic and Vizz Plus, the author of two books, “And she decided not to give up” and “USA Hegemony in the world system”, a speaker at various universities, events and workshops, and has also written various research papers. Nevertheless, given a choice, she prefers to be identified as a scholar.
The struggle of a young author is something which has been discussed for ages. But Oshikka never gave up and came up with two books, adored by readers of all ages.
In fact, she was recognised under the ‘Youngest Author Award” category by Delhi University in 2018. Her first book “And she decided to give up” is a story of a girl fighting against all odds. It transports readers to a place where they feel and empathise with the protagonist. The other book “USA Hegemony in the world system” is a subject course book for Delhi University Students. It emphasises on the U.S.A.’s domination of the world system. It covers a wide range of International Relation topics.
As a young entrepreneur Oshikka Lumb has been nothing short of a bright spark. Presently, she is associated with three organisations, scheduling her daily schedule in a way that she can be most effective. With Vizz+, which is an ERP system, her goal is to provide end-to-end solution for any educational institution in providing an one-stop shop educational hub. No doubt, this will actually automate every single need of an educational institution. Let’s not forget that Vizz+ is a fully SAAS-based application.
Event management is another competitive platform and as far as Delhi is concerned, it is not at all easy to make mark quickly. Under Oshikka’s prudent leadership, Events Mosaic has gone ahead in providing readymade solution to all event-associated issues and queries. According to Oshikka, “My aim is to accommodate all the essential elements involved in organizing an event, ranging from finding speakers, arranging for a suitable Event planner, security arrangements et cetera”.
Markitiers is also Oshikka’s brainchild which was established in 2016. It is an award-winning 360 degree marketing and branding company that builds brands with a meaning and products with a solution. Oshikka’s philosophy with Markitiers is simple and interesting at the same time. “We turn businesses into brands. As of now, we have helped more than 100 clients by providing a cost-effective and appropriate strategy in branding,” acknowledges Oshikka, the heart beat of Markitiers. Very soon, Oshikka is expected to join ICCPL (Integrated Centre for Consultancy Private Limited) and Shrine Events as the Director, adding yet another feather to her professional career.
