Overview
About US
In our Institution we established Institution’s Innovation Council (IIC) program in collaboration with AICTE for Higher Educational Institutions (HEIs) from the academic year 2022-2023, to systematically foster the culture of innovation and start-up ecosystem in our institutions. Primarily, IICs’ role is to engage large number of faculty, students and staff in various innovation and entrepreneurship related activities such as ideation, Problem solving, Proof of Concept development, Design Thinking, IPR, project handling and management at Pre-incubation/Incubation stage, etc., so that innovation and entrepreneurship ecosystem gets established and stabilized in HEIs.
The IIC model is designed to address the existing challenges/issues in HEIs such as less numbers, occasional and unplanned Innovation & Entrepreneurship (I&E) activities organized in HEIs with low involvement of top leadership, lack of coherence and absence of synergy in resource mobilization, deployment and underutilization of creative potential of youths as major barrier for vibrant I&E ecosystem to emerge from HEIs.
IIC model is unique and distinct as it integrates the functionalities of flexibility calendar activities, scoring and reward system, decentralizing operation with division of work, progress monitoring and incentive mechanisms in coordinated manner through a robust digital platform. In the last two years, IIC has emerged as a very sustainable and scalable model for promoting innovation within HEIs and the efforts of these IIC Institutes can be seen as an impactful contribution towards making the country's innovation and start-ups ecosystem more vibrant and dynamic.
The IIC's activities had a significant impact on the institute's students. The events helped to raise awareness of entrepreneurship and innovation, and they provided students with the opportunity to learn from experts and develop their entrepreneurial skills. The IIC also helped to create a vibrant entrepreneurial ecosystem at the institute, which has led to the creation of several successful start-ups. The IIC-PETEC is proud of the work it has done in 2023 to promote entrepreneurship and innovation at the institute. The IIC-PETEC is confident that its work will continue to have a positive impact on the institute's students and the start-up ecosystem in the years to come.
