NATIONAL INSTITUTIONAL STARTUP POLICY (NISP)
About NISP
Sri Krishna College of Technology offers higher education in Engineering, Technology, and Management relevant to the current and projected needs of society. Being an autonomous institute, SKCT lays a strong emphasis on collaborative research and stands apart from other institutes by its participatory work culture, student care programs, and high industry interaction. To convert this knowledge into commercial products/processes a well-defined innovation and startup policy is needed.
Sri Krishna College of Technology has initiated the implementation of the National Institutional Start-up Policy (NISP) as proposed by the Ministry of Education Innovation Cell (MIC). This framework will be enabling the creation of robust innovation and start-up ecosystem in terms of Intellectual Property ownership management, technology licensing, and institutional start-up policy.
This policy encourages:
a) To establish Entrepreneurship Development and Innovation Councils (EDIC) headed by qualified faculty members to guide student-led Entrepreneurship Development Cell (EDC) to promote startups, entrepreneurship, and innovation activities among students in the Institutes
b) To permit both faculty and students to establish startups based on the research project works in the Institute.
