At the 65th Institute Day celebrations, the Institute's Director, V Kamakoti, announced groundbreaking achievements and unveiled future plans that are set to propel IIT Madras to even greater heights.
One of the most remarkable achievements highlighted was the institute's success in intellectual property creation.

This relentless pursuit of innovation underscores the institute's commitment to driving India towards becoming a global technological powerhouse.
Furthermore, IIT Madras has set its sights on nurturing entrepreneurial talent and fostering a vibrant startup ecosystem. With an ambitious target of incubating 100 startups within the next year, the institute aims to launch a new startup every three days. This initiative not only fosters entrepreneurship but also catalyzes economic growth and job creation, positioning IIT Madras as a frontrunner in the startup landscape.
In addition to its entrepreneurial endeavors, IIT Madras is also focused on expanding its academic footprint. The institute has witnessed remarkable enrollment figures, with programs such as BS Data Science and Electronic Systems attracting over 26,000 students. Looking ahead, IIT Madras aims to enroll a staggering 30,000 students in its higher education system, signaling its commitment to providing quality education and nurturing talent across diverse disciplines.
The visionary leadership at IIT Madras recognizes the pivotal role of innovation and education in shaping India's future. V. Kamakoti emphasized the importance of intellectual property protection in driving India's journey towards global leadership in technology. He reiterated that it is innovation coupled with the safeguarding of intellectual assets that will propel India into a superpower status on the world stage.
Moreover, the institute's alumni, such as V. Sumantran, Chairman of the Board of Directors of InterGlobe Aviation Ltd., have played a crucial role in shaping India's aviation sector. Sumantran highlighted India's emergence as a key transit hub for travel between South East Asia and the Middle East, citing the rapid expansion of the country's airport infrastructure. This growth trajectory is further bolstered by significant aircraft orders, reaffirming India's position as a key player in the global aviation industry.
As India continues to march towards a sustainable and prosperous future, institutions like IIT Madras serve as beacons of progress and innovation. With their unwavering commitment to excellence and transformative initiatives, IIT Madras is not only shaping the minds of tomorrow but also laying the foundation for India's ascent as a global powerhouse of innovation and entrepreneurship.
