The concept of Innovation and Entrepreneurship Development Cell (IEDC) was formulated to promote innovation and entrepreneurial culture in educational institutions and to develop institutional mechanisms to foster techno-entrepreneurship for generation of wealth and employment.
The IEDCs are established in academic institutions across Kerala having requisite expertise and infrastructure. Kerala Startup Mission has taken this initiative to create awareness, exposure, and skills among the students and to enable and promote an environment to create entrepreneurial ventures by developing innovative products of social relevance.
The prime objective of the IEDC is to identify innovative scalable ideas from institutions and connect them to Kerala Startup Mission or provide them with all the necessary ingredients either directly or through various stakeholders that would convert them to startups.
AWH IEDC started in 2022. It conducted various sessions as part of IPL (INNOVATION PREMIER LEAGUE) in the academic year 2022-23 and inaugurated IPL sessions for the year 2023-24. Our students and nodal officers attended the IEDC summit and were inspired through it in previous years.
‘Startup Friday’ - Cook Your Ideas is a program launched by our students in the year 2023. Through this program, we were able to submit many ideas from our students through YIP.
