SAP signs MoU with MSRIT
SAP Labs India has entered a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Ramaiah Institute of Technology (MSRIT) to formalise their partnership with the institution and further establish the various initiatives being implemented as part of the collaboration.
SAP Labs India and MSRIT have been working together on several projects since February 2023. One of the programmes is Young Upstarts, an SAP initiative, to give students access to the tools they need to launch their own startups. Through this programme, SAP offers in-person sessions to interested students at the MSRIT campus to help them gain an entrepreneurial mindset, draft the ideal business pitch, and among other crucial business values required to build a successful startup.
Selected students in the Young Upstarts programme will also get the chance to work with seasoned professionals to develop broad technical skills. Additionally, as part of the student-partner programme, SAP Labs India has aligned with MSRIT to include two student partners (or campus ambassadors) in their developmental programmes.
Furthering the partnership, an All-India Hackathon will be held on the MSRIT campus, open to participation from students across universities in India. SAP’s business teams will provide problem statements, based on which the young minds will build tech-based solutions with help from their mentors.
“Industry-academia partnerships are essential for advancing research and development, fostering innovation, and providing economic benefits," said Sindhu Gangadharan, SVP and MD, SAP Labs India and Head, SAP User Enablement. "SAP Labs India’s partnership with MSRIT is yet another step to foster our commitment to deepen industry-academia collaboration and explore synergies around emerging and new technologies."
