India’s march to economic progress is dependent on strengthening its regional competitiveness to attract industry. It is essential for Business Leaders across the private and public enterprise to leverage technological advances to create an environment conducive for delivering broad-based sustainable growth. This requires a balanced mix of large enterprise in the public and private sectors, entrepreneurial start-ups, and innovators with ideas that can be taken forward as products and solutions.
Innovation can contribute to economic progress by commercializing productivity-enhancing products and solutions that effectively deploy the nation’s labour and capital resources. Innovation has the additional benefit of expanding the number and value of new products and solutions that global citizens are willing to buy, and this can significantly enhance the Government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative.
There is a unique opportunity for India’s Business and Academia Leaders to collaborate with Policy-makers and the Government to build an environment that promotes innovation. It is possible to achieve this by creating and nurturing innovation-focused collaborations between young and nimble start-ups, established companies, Academia, and Research Organizations.
The 4th edition of the well-received Indian Technology Congress is focused on addressing and identifying solution approaches to challenges faced by academia and industry in developing ‘Excellence in Engineering Practice: Networking and Collaboration’.
Recognizing the leading role played by engineers in developing technologies, systems, solutions and products for Society by connecting different domains of expertise and knowledge, the Indian Technology Congress – 2016 seeks to reinforce the connect between the Engineering fraternity and the society by ensuring that the engineering profession aligns itself with the contemporary social needs by deploying new and emerging technologies including Big Data, Internet of Things, Systems Biology amongst others.
The multidisciplinary nature of societal challenges has brought to fore the need to develop engineering solutions inspired by nature to address complex issues influencing life. Bio-inspired engineering is a multidisciplinary engineering field that seeks to leverage our understanding of the human body and brain to develop new engineering solutions for healthcare.
