Federal science leadership announced that India's academic institutions are establishing direct pathways between doctoral research and commercial manufacturing through programs requiring graduate students to develop market-ready technologies. Jitendra Singh told graduates at the Academy of Scientific and Innovative Research convocation that the institution's i-PhD initiative mandates scholars to create applications suitable for startups or translational research.

The academy serves nearly 7,000 students supervised by over 3,100 scientists across 79 locations nationwide, forming what Singh described as a shared research network linking multiple disciplines. The minister emphasized that India's transition toward becoming the world's dominant economy will depend on advances in deep technology, healthcare innovation, sustainable farming methods and climate solutions driven by such institutional frameworks.

Singh characterized the rapid expansion of research campuses as evidence that Indian youth increasingly view scientific careers as viable paths for entrepreneurship and professional development beyond traditional academic roles.
