Design Innovation Centres (DICs) Design Innovation Centres (DICs): Envisaged as autonomous,

specialised design research institutions for creation of an eco-system of design thinking, innovation and education in the country. Primary Aim: Scouting for innovations in social and economic domains

and offering a creative design education. Identification of a regional focus eg. local crafts, local industry, environment needs, skills development.

Location : NInC proposed co-location of DICs in existing institutes of eminence to leverage academic and infrastructure resources of the host institution.

Current Status: Identification of 5 host institutions for co-location of DICs by MHRD: IIT Mumbai, IIT Delhi, IIT Guwahati, IISC Bangalore, Delhi University.

Expectations from States: SInCs may take the lead in creating DICs at the State level based on local needs and challenges.

India Inclusive Innovation Fund (IIIF)The India Inclusive Innovation Fund (IIIF), conceptualised and designed by the NInC, seeks to bridge the gap between two ostensibly conflicting objectives of social impact and economic returns by providing enterprise financing to socially-focused innovative enterprises.

Objectives: Financing socially-focused innovations by Indian entrepreneurs and innovators who

address key development challenges among citizens in the lower half of the income pyramid, in critical areas such as healthcare, energy, and livelihood.

Offering scalable, self-sustaining solutions to Indian socio-economic challenges. However, these innovators face a shortage of venture financing, tailored to the unique requirements of socially-focused inclusive innovation.

Composition of IIIF: A SEBI-registered venture capital fund, the IIIF will receive 20% of its capital from

the Government of India, with the remainder drawn from banks, financial institutions, insurance companies, and bilateral / multilateral development agencies.

An intial corpus of Rs. 500 crores is being raised with contributions from public sector banks, multilateral agencies and other stakeholders . The Hon’ble Finance Minister has already announced an initial contribution of Rs. 100 crores (US $20 million) as seed money for the Fund. In-principle commitments to the tune of Rs. 375 crores have been received from various Financial Institutions.


India Inclusive Innovation Fund (IIIF) Activities:

Provide risk capital at both early and expansion stages. By seeking lower financial returns than those of purely profit-driven venture capital firms – but will demand demonstrable social impact, accompanied by commercial sustainability, from its investees.

Ownership of IIIF: The proposal is anchored in the Ministry of Medium, Small and Micro Enterprises (MSME).

Structure of IIIF:The management structure of the fund will enable autonomous decision - making along with public accountability. This will include a Section 25 independent Asset Management Company for investment management, an Investment Committee for decision making and high level Governing Council consisting of eminent individuals and Government of India representatives.

Current Status: The Proposal has received Cabinet Approval

Expectations from States:The IIIF offers State Governments a unique model for financing inclusive innovation for State-specific socio-economic challenges. NInC can share expertise on the same.


Innovation Scholarships Objective

Aimed at encouraging innovative thinking and problem-solving, rather than open-ended creativity.

Identification of students from 8th to 12th classes, including children of the same age group not attending regular schools or children out of school (upto age 17), who think creatively, laterally and innovatively on issues that they perceive as important.

Scope 1000 Scholarships to be awarded every year followed by regional mentoring workshops

and a national innovation showcase. Scholarship to be in the form of a one time award, coupled with incentives and support at

every stage of the innovation.

Benefits Multiplier effect by getting parents and teachers to value creativity and innovation. Spreading the culture of valuing innovation in the school system.

Current Status The proposal has been submitted to the Ministry of Human Resource Development and is in the

final stages of approval by the competent authorities.

Expectations from States Launching similar scheme at State level.


Innovation through ICT in Judicial System

The Government to facilitate and further improve access to justice by introducing ICT interventions in Justice Administration.

Current Status: A number of schemes namely the e-Court Mission Mode Project, Modernisation of the Police

Force Scheme (MPF), Crime and Criminal Tracking Network Schemes, (CCTNS) have been introduced with goal of leveraging technology for enhancing the efficiency of these institutions.

The NInC conceptualised the document ‘Courts of Tomorrow’ with the aim of providing a systems approach to justice delivery in order to reduce delays and pendency in the Courts. The document was formulated after consulting various stakeholders including Judges, registrars, police departments, lawyers, jurists etc. and suggests ten technology-based initiatives.

Among these are Information Infrastructure for the Courts; Interconnection of Courts, prisons and Police Stations; ICT-enabled courtrooms; Integrated Case and Document management System; E-filing and E-registry; E-Orders, E-copies and E-causelists; E-service and E-administration.

Madhya Pradesh

The State Government of Madhya Pradesh has funded a detailed study for technology optimization and interconnection of courts, prisons, police, forensic labs etc.

Expectations from the States:

This initiative could be taken up by the State Innovation Councils to promote at the State Government level.


Linkage between SInC and District Innovation Fund (DIF) Creation of DIF:

Created vide Department of Expenditure's communication F. No. 37(1) FCD/2010 dated 15th March 2011

Objective:To support and promote innovation, as it plays an important role in providing better alternatives, reducing costs, improving service levels, governance and justice delivery

Expectations from the States:Drafting of the appropriate guidelines to use the DIF.The suggested projects that can be undertaken include:
