A one-day Indo-African Academia-Industry Meet on Health Innovations was organized by TEC in association with the Healthcare Management Department, Chitkara Business School, Chitkara University on March 11.

Forty healthcare leaders from Africa attended this meet and over 50 presenters showcased their innovations and products related to healthcare. These presenters included 21 industries from the region, and as many as 20 students and faculty innovators and entrepreneurs.

The idea was to provide a platform to the Indian industries, start-ups, and academic innovators to explore possibilities of taking their products to the African markets. Additionally, the second key objective was to provide a platform for the academic innovators working in the healthcare domain to interact with the healthcare industries and explore ways to collaborate for joint development of technologies and commercializing academic technologies. Furthermore, the event served as a great networking platform for the professionals working in the healthcare domain, as close to 150 delegates from Chitkara University and around attended the exhibition and learned about the latest innovations happening in the field.
