22. Observations Increasing trend Govt. support for R & D has improved Innovations & Inventions Positive Impact of PIC on Inventions SSIs lack awareness, whereas L & M industry has established Innovation system

23. Gap Areas Innovations in agricultural implements exist but inadequate in post harvest processing Bicycle, auto part, machine tools, hosiery, sports good, leather, foundry, industry exist but inadequate innovations SSI largely dependent on outdated technologies Lack of awareness Weak IT & Energy sectors

24. Recommendations Enhance awareness Build capacities to ensure commercial benefits Request for examination not filed Many applications abandoned/ deemed to be withdrawn Create innovation ecosystem Policy to incentivize innovation Hand holding /scouting mechanism for grassroot inventions. Rope in Venture Capitalist/ Angel Investors Reforms at District level

25. Innovation Punjab: Proposed Think tank in State Innovation Council Jurisdictional Advantage Assessment to identify key areas for innovation e.g Agriculture implements, Biomass based energy, foundry & textile sectors Indentify Gaps Invite ideas Nurture through Venture Capitalist /Angel Investors Commercialize
