Building India’s Future-Ready STEM & Deep-Tech Talent
India’s STEM Education Gap
THE OPPORTUNITY with Nanotechnology
THE OPPORTUNITY with Nanotechnology
• STEM education remains theory-heavy
• Limited exposure to emerging technologies
• Low awareness of deep-tech careers
• Graduates lack hands-on, industry-relevant skills
• Weak linkage between education & societal challenges
🔴 Result: Untapped talent, low innovation readiness
