Outcome & Key Takeaway by Industries

CSIR has moved on the path of repositioning its Research, Development and Innovation efforts on the one hand and technology transfer and knowledgebase utilization on the other. India is fast emerging as a major player in the Research, Development and Innovation arena globally. Open innovation is gaining increasing importance across a number of major industries. This increasingly is making the country a prime choice among global companies for off-shoring their R&D and business needs. This scenario poses a challenge as well as an opportunity for CSIR & Indian Industries for mutual co-operation.
