ICAI 2022 is a pre-vibrant summit on 5 January 2022 in Science City.

The intends to construct operational innovation and incubating centers at all of its institutions as part of it.
SSIP 2.0 is being developed to achieve Aatmanirbhar Gujarat through Sustainable Development and equitable Growth.

The new program would provide financial support for such ideas and assist in getting them from “mind to market.”
