This week I’ll cover avenues for financial support for #startups / other industry by the Technology Development Board (TDB) @tdbgoi. Defence *is* one of the areas supported by TDB, but many defence startups are not aware of the scheme.

No…the TDB and TDF are not related. 1/n
TDB - setup in Sept 1996 under the Technology Development Board Act (1995) - is a statutory body under the Dept. of Science & Technology @IndiaDST. A 1st of its kind organisation within the govt framework, its sole objective is commercializing fruits of indigenous research. 2/n
TDB has been doing good work across multiple sectors. For example, the new terminal at the Chennai airport uses sky lighting domes for building atriums developed by @skyshade__. Skyshade is a TDB beneficiary…as are many others.3/n ImageImage

“It needs emphasis that since its earliest days, the Indian Navy was a pioneer of ‘Make in India’ and Atmanirbhar Bharat (a self reliant India), contributing not merely to its own growth, but also to the national technology ecosystem”
I find the relentless drive for indigenisation by the IN over many decades fascinating. This 🧵 has some quotes from an article by @srikantkesnur in the inaugural Indian Naval Despatch (Winter 2020). As the quotes show, we planned well ahead…starting from 1947!
“At the dawn of independence in 1947-48, the Indian Navy had authored a ‘Plans Paper’ that was audacious in scope and envisaged a two fleet navy, with two aircraft carriers, two light cruisers, eight submarines and several blue water surface ships”

Starting this week, I’ll compile (weekly) information about #NIIO #TDAC & #SPRINT from information available in various press releases,articles, speeches and books. The 🧵 this week is about the launch of the Naval Innovation and Indigenisation Organisation and it’s structures… Image
#NIIO was launched by Hon’ble Raksha Mantri @rajnathsingh on 13 August 2020. Dedicated structures were created for the end users to interact with academia & industry towards fostering innovation and indigenisation for self-reliance in defence Image
The Defence Acquisition Policy 2020 (DAP 20) envisaged Service HQs setting up IIOs within existing resources. @indiannavy already had a functional & dynamic Directorate of Indigenisation. NIIO was to build upon these indigenisation initiatives, as well as focus on ‘innovation’ Image
