BYST works with major corporates such as Escorts, DIAGEO, American International Group, Bajaj, Godrej, Tata Group and many more. Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) provides the infrastructure and the administrative support.

Apart form helping other YBIs set-up programmes in their countries, BYST is providing long term consultancy in terms of how to develop a partnership with the private sector, how to source entrepreneurs and mentors, and other day-to-day activities on how to run a successful entrepreneurship development programme.

In 1994 we started our Rural Programme in collaboration with Escort Rural Development. Since then BYST Faridabad has been working as a catalytic agency supporting rural youth not only by means of financing but also by providing them guidance through mentoring.

The partnership with Escorts has been of tremendous support to BYST ever since BYST's inception in Faridabad in April 1994. As a partner, Escorts played an indelible role in providing direct support to BYST through donations to the corpus and also support in kind in areas such as infrastructure facilities, awareness generation, program monitoring and the like.

In the same year, BYST was approached by DIAGEO, a multinational, to launch a youth entrepreneurship development program in Pune (Western India). CII, which was already a support partner to BYST in Delhi and Chennai, came forward to provide the infrastructure and managerial support.
