Introduction
Academia–Industry Linkage / Partnership is a fairly known subject over more than a century, yet inadequately perceived and vastly unexploited for the mutual benefits of all the concerned parties including society as a whole. Developing countries have tacitly exhibited this development gap when compared to developed countries. Even so called emerging economies have not traversed this development path substantially. Both education sector (especially higher education part) and industrial sector have grown numerically after the dawn of globalization era but leaving considerable scope for meaningful and sustained linkage efforts. Reasons may be different but there could be some barriers for Academia, Industry and the Government to get linked. There is a pressing need for well developed action programme to attain the desired objectives by overcoming various challenges of linkage development which are not so formidable. “The term Academia-Industry Linkage refers to interaction between all parts of the higher educational system and the industrialising economy”
The Objectives of the conference:
To create Renewed Awareness about Academia-Industry Linkage/ Alliances among the stakeholders.
To provide pointers for initial action plans.
To provide well conceived platform for useful Academia-Industry Linkages and their productive as well as sustainable results.
Sub-Themes:
Sub-themes are of suggestive nature and are not of restrictive types.
Emerging areas of Academia –Industry Linkages.
Initiative patterns for effective Academia-Industry Linkages.
Industrial Research: Scope for Academia Partnership with Industry.

A Passion for innovation in Management
education & social development
D S KHARE FOUNDATION’S CHAITANYA is one such Idea, which is heavily laden with emotion and we are passionate about making innovative contributions, to the field of social development through Research, training and advocacy of social Entrepreneurship.
“Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones you’ve been waiting for. We are the change that you seek.”
Click to Enlarge Images
ASOM’s Research centre, Asian Research Institute will germinate innovative research thinking and serve as a bed rock, for enhancing the quality of management education which we deliver and its Consulting Services we provide, to the leading industrial organizations. Our professors are encouraged and motivated to produce research papers and will forge alliances with global universities.
Innovation in any field starts with an inspirational dream, which leads to the creation of ideas which are laden with emotion. Passion and Emotion leads to Action whereas Rationale only leads to conclusions. Action is critical towards transforming a dream into a project. Foresight is necessary to ensure your inter-connection with this world, along with Insights and Creativity to pierce the fog of uncertainty, with which all new ventures have to contend with.
We believe in empowering students, equipping their minds with superior management thought and framing intellectual challenges that ignite great ideas and fuel innovation.
The school will become an idea generation factory. We seek to create bold thinkers of tomorrow who challenge existing assumptions and perceived wisdoms, and are willing to take risks.
Innovative, bottom-up methods will solve problems that now seem intractable from energy to poverty and disease.
Science and technology, powered by the fuel of entrepreneurial energy, is the largest multipliers of resources we have to solve our many social problems.
The Key Focus Areas will be:
How Industries respond to environmental concerns will create new business opportunities and fuel the next boom cycle?
Understand the dynamics of global markets and how they influence domestic production and consumption patterns, in developed and emerging economies.
The impact of international financial markets on domestic financial institutions as well as the risk appetite of lenders and borrowers.
How China and India should adapt to the developing economic conditions and initiate strategies which will enable them, to influence and thrive in a globalised economy? How they will maximize their strengths, of being innovative and low cost production and service economies?
How the digital world and social networks will change patterns of communication, consumption and influence and their impact on the real world?
How demographic realities in the developed world and the developing countries, will get rationalized and balanced?
