A 2017 Global Innovation Index report says that India ranks 60th out of 127 countries in terms of innovation. To help the nation climb up the rung, the Government of India (GoI) has launched several initiatives to build an innovation-driven economy. Smart India Hackathon is one such initiative by GoI, proposed to enhance innovative capabilities of students in higher education institutions.
When it comes to providing opportunities to students through innovations, Narasaraopeta Engineering College(NEC), located in the Guntur district of Andhra Pradesh, is the perfect example. The college imparts futuristic, comprehensive engineering education compliant with global standards.
NEC’s business incubation centre incubated 12 ventures as of 2018 and launched six of them. Digi Doc Times (Healthcare), HaasPro (Hospitality), and Book Buddy Shop (Education) are three of the most renowned startups that emerged from Startup NEC.
On the higher tangent, NEC is bringing global innovations to India and is getting ready to host an International Conference – Mobile Cloud Computing, Communication & Engineering 2018 (ICMCCCE-18) – at its venue, from June 22, 2018 to June 23, 2018. The event is sponsored by Labtech Innovation – a renowned promoter and publisher of scientific research papers.
The event is a confluence of knowledge, innovation, networking, and opportunities on a global scale. Eminent doctorate holders and engineers from all over the world including India, Australia, USA, UK, Malaysia, and Russia will advise, judge, and assist the event.
NEC housing the ICMCCCE-18 is a golden opportunity for the country to showcase it as the pulse of innovation and technology. The conference may also help increase the county’s global ranking in innovations.
The event acts as a gateway for young minds to drive business ideas and exhibits them before a larger, more proficient crowd. The experience from the event will boost the confidence of the participants and give them a clear picture of how to frame ideas for problem-solving.
Narasaraopeta Engineering College (NEC) is setting an example for other Indian institutions by hosting events that will pave the way for inventions and value-based education. From building in-house incubator centres to hosting global conference such as ICMCCCE-18, NEC is transforming India into a core hub for innovation.
