Dear Sir/Madam,
Greetings from the Ministry of Education's Innovation Cell (MIC) !!!
Hope your Institution is in the process of building an innovation repository as part of the YUKTI - National Innovation Repository Initiative of Institution's Innovation Council (IIC).
The scouting and verification of Ideas/Innovations/Startups Developed by Students/Faculty Members/Staffs/Graduate Alumni/Incubated Startups in the HEIs should be an ongoing and round the year action and utilisation of the repository to provide further support to convert into startups.
The submission and verification status as on 30th Sept. 2022 ( extended) will be used for IIC 4.0 Annual Performance Assessment and ARIIA 2022. With minimum submission & verification of 50 Ideas, 25 innovations/prototypes and 5 startups will boost IIC institution's star rating in the IIC4.0 Annual Performance, and furthermore the verified and recommended innovations (TRL 4 and above) and registered startups will get auto reflected in the ARIIA DCS.
HEI with IIC can can scout Ideas/Innovations, and Startups by sharing the institute specific link (available in YUKTI tab in the IIC login page) or innovators/startups can submit by visiting the YUKTI webpage https://yukti.mic.gov.in/
Scouted ideas/innovations and startups can be seen at the YUKTI - NIR dashboard and IIC institute can manage the verification by adding faculty Innovation Ambassadors at the institute and or adding external experts.
