OUR MOTIVATION
Science is not what you do in the lab, it's what you take to the lab and what you
take out of the lab with your findings. It is not about collecting scientific
knowledge; it's a training of the mind. It’s easy to know, but difficult to
understand.
In the new Digital Economy, information that is circulated,
creates Innovations and contributes to National Wealth.
- Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam.

CAN WE AFFORD BRAIN DRAIN ?
The UNDP estimates that India loses $2 billion a year because of the emigration of
computer experts to the U.S. Indian students going abroad for their higher studies
costs India a foreign exchange outflow of $10 billion annually.

4.
No more than 1 percent of students with
undergraduate degrees opt for doctoral studies
and the substantial number who do prefer to go abroad.
India produces only up to 125 Ph.D.'s in computer engineering a
year, despite nearly 1.7 million engineering students graduating
each year.
Teaching and research
do not go together in India
as happens in the world’s leading universities

5.
Why India lags behind in Research &
Innovation ?
 Pure science research done in India is uncontrolled, irrelevant or
concentrated in the hands of a few people atop the totem pole.
 Many Ideas in circulation are either borrowed or uncreative.
 Many students from top scientific and engineering institutions also have
been drifting to finance and management, leaving only mediocre students
who could not bring quality into the institutions.
 All talk of raising the GDP growth rate in India will be so much hot air if the
level of research and development (R&D) in terms of quality of
performance and investment do not measure up to the exacting demands of
knowledge economy.
 We have never advertised our positions abroad. China does. Malaysia
does.

6.
Proposed Solution
 Assistance in converting your ideas, innovations and Research into an actual B-
Plan or to add into National Wealth.
 Networks of world-class entrepreneurs, investors, and potential partners.
 Funding for the enterprise through TIETS (Technology Incubation and
Entrepreneurial training Society), started under the aegis of SRIC.
 Mentorship by successful and seasoned professionals which include successful
industrialist.
 Broad media exposure and PR buzz.
 Motivation of Events & Activities organized by Global E-Cell is: Content rich
feedback on their business model from world class entrepreneurs, investors, and
professional service providers on our judging Panel.

In favor of Innovation
 The tide is slowly turning. With rapid expansion of higher-education infrastructure
and enabling environments, India has been successful in attracting young
researchers back home.
 IIT Bombay has hired more than 100 young Indian assistant professors in the past
three years, all with international experience.
 The Indian government launched a prime minister’s fellowship scheme for doctoral
research with industry partnership last year for science, technology, engineering,
agriculture, and medicine. Under the scheme, 100 fellowships will be given to
selected candidates working on research projects jointly with industry.

13.
Misinterpretations about Innovation
Innovation is responsible for as much as 80% of growth in a nation's
GDP. While most agree that it is the key to growing our economies
nationally and locally, there is a catch. Prosperity created by innovation
does not automatically translate into job growth. In each successive
recession of the past 50 years, job recovery has been significantly slower
than in the previous recession. The most recent recession in the
industrialized world is only the most dramatic example of a Jobless
Recovery.
Job Creator, Job Destroyer
Innovation is not just a job creator. It is a job-
destroyer as well. Innovation makes old
products and services obsolete by automating
routine and repetitive tasks, and substituting
hardware and software for human
beings. The pace of innovation in information
and communications technology – which has
created new jobs, new companies and new
industries – has also destroyed low-income and
middle-income jobs, from factories to call
centers, banks to law firms.
Striking the Balance
The world’s Intelligent Communities – including
the Top7 Intelligent Communities of 2013 – are
leading the way in striking the balance between
the positive and negative impacts of
innovation. Pursuing innovation, they are
generating economic growth and high-quality
employment in an environment that also delivers
exceptional quality of life for all. Their ability
to perform this balancing act makes the
difference between prosperity and irrelevance –
and makes them leaders in the Intelligent
Community movement.

In the end, we just want to conclude by saying:
"In a knowledge-based economy, a country
like ours will be left far behind by smaller
countries like South Korea or Israel or
even smaller countries if we do not keep pace
with others, let alone outpace them in the
fundamental sciences”.
