The PSG Nanotech Research Innovation and incubation center was inaugurated today by Dr. HK Mittal, Advisor Member secretary, NSTEDB, DST, Government of India. As Coimbatore is known as engineering hub, this nanotechnology provides a wide scope for entrepreneurs to create new products in a new domain.
The center is a collaborative initiative of PSG institute of advanced studies, PSG College of Technology, PSG STEP to promote entrepreneurs in Nanotechnology domain. The center is supported by the National Science and Technology Entrepreneurship development board which is functioning under the Government of India who render support on various basis.
With close to 25 faculty, 30 Research Scholars and 25 funded projects this center concentrates on four major thrust area in Nanotechnology like Smart Textiles, Healthcare, Renewable Energy and Plastic Electronics. And, about 14 technologies are readily available or the startups to venture into nanotechnology.
National Science and Technology Entrepreneurship development board through this funding has provided sensors for industrial and biological applications, Tissue engineering, Nano-bio materials for drug delivery applications, flexible printed electronics, fuel cells and high-energy batteries, development of third generation solar cells etc.
