The year 1991 was a crucial one as it was the pilot phase of the programme. The programme was set up in the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII) headquarters, which provided the infrastructure and managerial support to the Trust.

Soon the corporate sector started recognising the work of BYST and the need for generating employment through entrepreneurship. By the end of 1993 there was also a need to target the rural youth towards enterprise development. With this objective BYST started its operations in the villages of Rural Haryana in 1994. ESCORTS supported BYST in fulfilling its agenda of developing dynamic micro-entrepreneurs in the villages. Presently BYST is operational in 90 villages spread over 100 km. The project area is divided into 4 clusters having around 20 villages per cluster, Seekri, Tigaon, Jasana and Fathepur.

The business community both nationally and internationally started realising that entrepreneurship development is the key to tackle the global unemployment problem. This necessitated a partnership between non -governmental organisations and the corporate sector. In the midst of this scenario BYST was approached by DIAGEO, a multinational, to launch a youth entrepreneurship development programme in Pune (Western India) in 1994. CII, which was already a support partner to BYST in Delhi and Chennai, came forward to provide the infrastructure and managerial support.
