IITMRP drives innovations to commercialisation by bringing industry-academia–students–alumni together. Alumni are a very important component of this. We had them, but we did not have a space, specifically earmarked for them. So we thought of providing space for an Alumni Center, a premium and informal space for alumni, not just that of IITM but of all IITs. Happenstance interactions can add a lot of value and provide new perspectives. We hope to attract at least 50 alumni per day to the Center. The Center is also open to other entrepreneurs or companies who want to contribute to the growth.
