IfM Invited to Indian Government Seminar - International Workshop on Industry-Academia Collaboration
The seminar addressed three key themes which had been the subject of deliberation by senior industry/academic working groups:
- Research, Innovation and Entrepreneurship (focus on manufacturing, defence and sustainable development, and major national goals such as social development, health and water.)
- Skills and Employability (focus on manufacturing and services)
- Institutional Mechanisms (for collaboration between industry and academia)
Professor Sir Mike Gregory gave a keynote talk at the seminar explaining the IfM’s approaches in these areas and reviewing recent UK national developments.
The seminar was attended by a good cross-section of industry and academic leaders from across India and identified promising areas for future collaboration.
