Innovations – NIF

NIF, SRISTI and Innovations : The first in this listing I would like to mention is that of SRISTI (Society for Research and Initiatives for Sustainable Technologies and institutions), Honeybee network and NIF (National Innovation Foundation). All of these are the brainchild of Padmasree Prof. Anil Gupta of IIM Ahmedabad. His vision and untiring efforts the movement he initiated culls out grassroot innovations from the country side. The endeavour is to make each innovation sustainable, scalable and mass produceable. Check out the website and also following few videos.
