INDUSTRY COLLABORATIONS
FACILITATED BY OFFICE OF
THE PSA
Strategic Alliances division of the Office of Principal Scientific Adviser (PSA) facilitates collaborations and partnerships among industries, foundations, academia, start-ups, MSMEs through coalitions and consortia at both national and international levels. The section contains
information on contributions from industries, their timely pitching-in and joining the warfare against mitigating the COVID pandemic and boosting the health infrastructure at speed.
Additionally, Science & Technology (S&T) clusters are being established as formal umbrella structures for S&T organisations in various cities to have better synergy while retaining their autonomy and are supported by Office of the PSA to create an Atmanirbhar Bharat through S&T. These clusters are creating strong linkages among existing academic institutions, national and state research laboratories, and other stakeholders like relevant ministries, industry partners, start-ups, MSMEs, state governments, philanthropic foundations, and international organisations. To accomplish the objectives towards strengthening the S&T ecosystem of the country, several initiatives from Delhi, Jodhpur, Pune and Bhubaneswar clusters have been covered here for better dissemination of the information to the scientific fraternity.
