Innovation, Creativity, Long term vision and Leadership skills are some of the important traits that one should develop being an engineering student and such skills will ensure a rewarding professional career". Gone are the days when industry used to look for specialized engineers, not the multinationals who are looking for multitaskers who can be groomed as the future corporate leaders, he added.

Bharat S. Patel, Chairman, Startups Mission & Innovation, ASSOCHAM said, "An innovative idea is one which helps in addressing the problems faced by mankind. An engineer should not be afraid of a crisis like COVID-19 and should convert the crisis situation into an opportunity. In 2020 when the pandemic hit India, many small-scale industries & entrepreneurs immediately rose to occasion and tried to find out the solutions that our country was facing".

Dr. Uday Desai, former Director IIT Hyderabad said, "India is currently investing US$ 58 billion in Research and Development in comparison to the USA which is investing a whopping amount of US$ 612 billion and China US$ 514 billion. We cannot utilize the youth strength of our country until and unless we create ample opportunities through research and innovation. Any nation which needs to put itself in the league of developed economies, has to concentrate in the field of manufacturing of the next generation of products and technologies".
