Tata Tech, RVCE Set Up Rs 600 Mn Innovation Hub

In a strategic move to revolutionize engineering education, Tata Technologies and RV College of Engineering (RVCE), Bengaluru, signed an MoU to establish the Center for Invention, Innovation, Incubation & Training (CIIIT) on the RVCE campus.

Backed by a total investment of Rs 600 million—Rs 500 million from Tata Technologies and Rs 100 million from the Rashtreeya Sikshana Samithi Trust (RSST), which governs RVCE—the CIIIT is set to emerge as a premier skill development and innovation hub for southern India.

The center features advanced industrial infrastructure, including smart manufacturing tools and dedicated labs, to enable students, startups, and MSMEs to benefit from hands-on learning, real-time assessments, and technological support.

Speaking at the launch, Dr. K. N. Subramanya, Principal, RVCE, said, “The Center for Invention, Innovation, Incubation & Training (CIIIT) at RVCE represents a transformative ecosystem aimed at bridging academia and industry. It empowers students with hands-on exposure to Industry 4.0, supports rural youth with vocational training, and nurtures startups through mentorship.”

Dr. M. P. Shyam, President, RSST, added, “This partnership with Tata Technologies is a proud moment for RVCE. It combines academic excellence with industrial innovation, offering students experiential learning and helping them address real-world challenges.”

From Tata Technologies, Shri Sushil Kumar, Global Head, emphasized, “Our goal is to co-create talent pipelines with academia. CIIIT is a model for integrating certifications, training modules, and smart technologies into mainstream education to prepare India’s youth for global competitiveness.”

Shri Pawan Bhageria, President, Tata Technologies, added, “Strengthening India's technical education is critical for economic growth. Through CIIIT, we’re enabling students to move from theory to practice seamlessly.”

The center will also serve as a hub for expert lectures, startup incubation, and continuous upskilling of faculty and professionals. With a focus on community-driven projects, CIIIT will contribute to inclusive growth and sustainable development in the region.

This partnership marks a milestone in industry-academia collaboration, setting a scalable model for future-ready technical education across the country.
