by Goa State Innovation Council (Author)

Description:

What do innovators need?

They need courage to pursue an idea no matter what others think. And motivation that can help them pushing their horizons. This can happen when there is conducive environment, which nurtures talent and facilitates growth.

The Goa State Innovation Council has played an instrumental role in infusing a scientific temperament to help Goa become the next Startup Hub. GSInC reached out to schools and college to promote grassroot level innovations. It has established a state-of-the-art Rapid Prototyping lab equipped with the cutting-edge tools and techonolgy.

The Council has mentored around 74 project till March 2023. Out of these, 49 are in the prototyping stage and provisional patents for 9 projects have been filed. So far, GSInC has interacted with 32,628 individuals. And in this process, we found out a need-gap. Whenver we touchbased with aspiring inovators, we identified that they were lacking in the IPR knowledge. Hence, with the help of Aumirah IP, we have created this IPR toolkit to create awareness and boost the IP filing in the state.

So to develop the spirit of innovation further, we invite Students, Startups, Innovators, Research Faculty & Entrepreneurs to innovate, conceptualize, and scientifically shape their ideas using this IPR toolkit.
