Now, Telangana to find innovators, help them
District Innovation Fellows (DIFs) will be placed by the telangana State Innovation Cell (TSIC) in each district to hunt for innovators and work with them. The DIFs will act as a link between innovators and TSIC in order to further their innovation ideas in addition to recognising the innovators.
According to her, TSIC is currently preparing to deploy DIFs, who would get a monthly stipend in exchange for scouting their particular districts for bright innovators and their work. She said that they preferred approaching innovators directly rather than waiting for them to contact the government for assistance.
These DIFs might include kids, educators, former workers, and others. They can assist the TSIC in connecting with innovators by working part-time. The TSIC will arrange for the necessary support, including financing facilities, once the innovators approach them.
The TSIC will make the DIFs aware of their responsibilities and provide training sessions before sending them into the field. The opportunity for exposure, the chance to develop their communication skills, working on course projects, and other benefits would make serving as DIFs very beneficial for the students, she continued. One DIF will be deployed by TSIC in each district, and more DIFs will be authorised as needed.
