BEA has great power in the industry network it has built, and we're honoured to be a part of it. They recognise startups and make them visible. If you want success, you need this visibility — customers, investors and everyone's goodwill.

Dr. Amrendra Kumar AjayFaculty, Harvard Medical School, Harvard University, USA
I was an intern at BEA for one month. I always wanted to start my career with an organisation in a growing phase that invests in its people. BEA has a great ability to tap the potential of its people and put them where they can succeed, with an open and transparent culture and approachable senior management. It was a privilege to work with talented, motivated people ready to share knowledge — a complete package in itself.

I gained a lot of experience in my two weeks as an intern at BEA. I learned to work in a team and learned farmer-to-consumer supply chain management. Talking to my mentor Rajesh Singh through the career-ready programme came true here. BEA enabled me to dive deep into the sector I want to work in, and I'm thankful to everyone who made it possible.
Gaurav AnandIntern · MBA Rural Management, Dr. Rajendra Prasad Central Agricultural University, Pusa
I applied for the internship at BEA, gave an interview and got selected. My mentors Rajesh Sir and Ankit Sir were amazing, helping me whenever I got stuck, and the guidance of the General Secretary, Abhishek Sir, was the cherry on top. I worked on several projects, met successful entrepreneurs, and my communication, research and problem-solving skills improved drastically. I recommend every aspiring young entrepreneur in Bihar to work with BEA at least once.
