Jaipuria Institute of Management, Noida, one of the premier management education institutions in the country, is delighted to announce the launch of the Centre for Social Innovation and Impact (CSII).<\/p>\n
\u201cManagement teaching is a very big part of what we do, but we must push the frontiers of the institute, and that\u2019s the whole idea of doing something new. I am very fortunate to have an esteemed advisory committee, and I am sure as the centre flourishes and grows, many would like to join, and I look forward to that,\u2019\u2019 said Prof. Subhajyoti Ray, Ex Officio Member, Director, Jaipuria Institute of Management, Noida.<\/p>\n
The official launch took place in the presence of esteemed Chief Guests, including Dr. Anil K. Gupta (IIT Roorkee), Mr. Chandra Mishra (Beggars\u2019 Corporation), Mr. Sushil Khosla (TCS), Mr. Anup Rau (Future Generali India Insurance), Dr. Pravakar Sahoo (NITI Aayog), Professor Subhajyoti Ray (Director, Jaipuria Institute of Management, Noida), and Dr. Amarnath Tripathi (Chair, CSII).<\/p>\n
\u201cI feel honoured to be a part of this advisory committee and the Jaipuria Institute. All four campuses already carry the tag of excellence, but this is a unique initiative by this campus, as there is no other centre in the country focused on social innovation and impact. I sincerely wish that the centre develops successfully and becomes a prestigious national entity,\u201d said Dr. Anil K. Gupta, Professor at IIT Roorkee.<\/p>\n
Echoing his views and complimenting the institution, Mr. Anup Rau, MD & CEO, Future Generali India Insurance Company, said, \u201cI think one of the criticisms directed at academic institutions in India is that they are very academic and there is no real impact they make. However, today I believe we can see genuine efforts being made through this centre to create social impact through innovation. So, my compliments to the institution for having brought this to life. I am sure that great things will follow from here.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n
The Centre of Excellence focuses on tackling key social, economic, and environmental challenges through research, innovation, and collaboration. Aligned with India\u2019s 2047 vision, it aims to drive inclusive growth through policy research, capacity building, and community engagement.<\/p>\n
It will also function as an impact-driven think tank, fostering partnerships and offering scalable, sustainable solutions to improve human well-being.<\/p>\n
The centre\u2019s core mission includes building the capacities of individuals and institutions via extensive training, knowledge dissemination, and joint initiatives. Moreover, it will emphasise national and international collaborations that strengthen impact and innovation for societal transformation.<\/p>\n
The unveiling of CSII marks a substantial step in the institute\u2019s journey toward becoming a pioneer in the business education landscape and designing out-of-the-box solutions for contemporary challenges.<\/p>\n
