Technology business incubation
MSRSAS has created facilities at its Peenya Campus to incubate technology business entrepreneurship and has plans to support budding entrepreneurs to realize their dream. The scheme is to support about 25-30 candidates in each batch with each candidate having a project idea and would like to become an entrepreneur but have the limitation of resources.MSRSAS will provide work space varying from 500-1000 sft at low rent on its campus. On campus, product design, engineering design and analysis, simulation, circuits design and fabrication, simulation, prototyping, testing facilities both in the areas of mechanical engineering and electronic engineering are made available at low cost.
Working on the project idea and making it a commercial successes is the sole responsibility of the candidate. Each candidate will be given support at low cost for three years, after which the candidate will move off of the campus, making way for a new candidate.
