to increase awareness in SMEs of the latest
inventions, innovations or best practices
globally and additionally help SMEs identify
the right technology.
Technology
Development and/or upgradation
We assist SMEs in developing technology or
upgrade existing operations through a network
of R&D Labs/Academic Institute or consultants.
The upgradation includes all the requirements
of a company like raw materials, process,
quality, packaging, etc.
Research

We promote basic research for New Product
Introduction (NPI). The research assistance
offered via the network will encompass all
activities from feasibility to launch.
Technology
Sourcing & transfer
We are tied up with a vast network of national
and international research institutes and
experts. Our services include identifying
the right technology source, expert evaluation
of technology and if required, adaptation
of the technology for meeting the national
/ international standards and statutory requirements.
We also help our clients in negotiating the
best ‘technology transfer’ deals
with the technology provider. For this purpose,
the center provides information on the required
international trade regulations and standards.
Technology
Commercialization
As a logical extension to the Technology Sourcing
& transfer Services, we provide a helping
hand to the entrepreneurs and industries in
commercialization of the technologies. The
center assists SMEs in converting a lab-scale
or a concept (patentable) product to a pilot-scale
product and eventually get it tested by nationally
/ internationally accredited labs and if required,
test-market it for further commercialization.
Quality
control
The center assists SMEs in identifying methods
to improve quality and yield of products.
We will also help in identifying the appropriate
quality tools like TQM, Six Sigma, etc.,
IPR
Services/Assistance
We assist SMEs & entrepreneurs in intellectual
property assessment & filing of patents
with the help of external consultants.
Promotion
of Technologies leading to Societal Benefits
We understand that for sustainable development,
technology has to play key role in development
of society. Though most of the technology
projects supported by the center ultimately
play an important role for the development
of the society, we have taken the lead to
promote projects through direct or indirect
Government intervention, for the benefit of
the society as a whole.
We are constantly
looking out for Technologies for Social Benefits,
to work on newer models of industry –
society linkage for sustainable development.
