ABOUT MSME - BUSINESS INCUBATOR – SKR ENGINEERING COLLEGE

World over, Micro and Small Enterprises (MSEs) are recognized as an important constituent of the national economies, contributing significantly to employment expansion and poverty alleviation. Recognizing the importance of micro and small enterprises, which constitute an important segment of Indian economy in terms of their contribution to country’s industrial production, exports, employment and creation of entrepreneurial base, the Central and state Governments have been implementing several schemes and programmes for promotion and development of these enterprises. Among the six basic principles of governance underlying the National Common Minimum Programme (NCMP) of the Government, “sustained economic growth in a manner that generates employment” has a pride place. The NCMP also describes the MSEs as “the most employment-intensive segment”.

The main objective of the scheme is to promote emerging technological and knowledge based innovative ventures that seek the nurturing of ideas from professionals beyond the traditional activities of Micro, Small & Medium Enterprises (MSME’s). The purpose of the small dose of assistance proposed under the present scheme is to support students/ex-students of science and technology and entrepreneurs try out their innovative ideas (processes and products) at the laboratory or workshop stage and beyond (to the extent possible) – to carry forward the idea from its mere conception to ‘know-how ‘ and then to ‘do how’ stage. Even Special Purpose Machine (SPM) would clarify as ‘innovations’ under this low cost scheme as long as they lead to better, more competitive and economical operations and are marketable by the small and medium enterprises that are to be formed by the successful innovators.

Under this scheme “Business Incubators” (BI) is to be set up under Technology (Host) Institutions. The BI is expected to help the incubation of about 10 new ideas or units. For this service, which includes the provision of laboratory / workshop facilities and other assistance / guidance to young innovators, each BI will be given between Rs.4 lakh to Rs. 8 lakh per idea / unit nurtured by them, limited to a total of Rs. 62.5 lakh for the ten units.

So each BI or each Host Institution may get:

• (a) Upgradation of infrastructure = Rs. 2.50 lakhs
• (b) Orientation/Training = Rs. 1.28 lakhs
• (c) Administrative Expenses = Rs. 0.22 lakhs
• (d) Grant to 10 incubatees = Rs. 62.5 Lakhs
• Thus total assistance to BI = Rs. 66.50 lakhs

Our Institution has been approved as Business Incubator for implementing of the scheme “Support for Entrepreneurial and Management Development of SMEs through Incubators” by MSME, New Delhi.
