NSTEDB functions under the aegis of Department of Science & Technology. It has representation from socio-economic and scientific Departments / Ministries, premier entrepreneurship development institutions and all India Financial Institutions. The Programmes conducted by NSTEDB have created awareness among S&T persons to take up entrepreneurship as a career
-->Department of Science & Technology (DST) was established with the objective of promoting new areas of Science & Technology and to play the role of a nodal department for organising, coordinating and promoting S&T activities in the country. It gives funds to various approved scientific projects in India. It also supports various researchers in India to attend conferences abroad and to go for experimental works

-->I started PS-1925 last year and we aim to provide drone-based solutions for different sectors like agriculture, healthcare, defense, disaster management, etc. Being a part of projects and initiatives by the Government of India such as NewGEN IEDC helps us to explore new possibilities and domains possible for our drone. NewGEN has provided us a platform to achieve this with its on-going set-up of class-apart innovation laboratory at IIIT Allahabad, a dream of every technology startup. Moreover, the mentors at NewGEN has given a new definition of how we perceive entrepreneurship. I highly recommend all the young engineers at IIIT Allahabad to consider NewGEN IEDC as a kickstart for their entrepreneurial journey
