Foundation for Innovation and Technology Transfer (FITT) is the Industrial Interface at IIT Delhi. It was established at the Indian Institute of Technology Delhi (IITD) as a Registered Society on 9th July 1992. The mission of FITT is to be an effective interface with the industry to foster, promote and sustain commercialization of science and technology in the Institute for mutual benefits. For over two decades now, FITT has been operating in a mission mode for effecting the interface between the Institute and the industry and has been devising innovative ways to create partnerships and linkages with business and community to enable knowledge transfer for societal benefits. The team at FITT and IITD academicians have been largely responsible for our successful outreach efforts including extensive S&T collaborations.
The role of FITT can be seen in fostering technology development, technical consultancy, collaborative R&D, professional HR development programmes, industry-site visits, event participation, corporate membership etc. This is necessitated by the key agenda of the foundation to showcase and transfer the Institute’s “intellectual ware” to industry and also inject industrial relevance in teaching and research at IITD. Quite a number of short-term and medium-term education courses on emerging technologies have been organized and a number of important problem solving innovative and research oriented consultancy projects have been taken up.
FITT is recognized as Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (SIRO) by DSIR. As a SIRO, FITT is eligible for full custom duty exemption for import of capital goods, raw materials and technology know-how that are required for execution of R&D programmes sponsored by the industry.
About FITT

The Foundation for Innovation and Technology Transfer (FITT) is the foremost technology transfer organization from academia in India having been in active operation for over 22 years now. FITT enjoys a pre-eminent position in the country and strives to be amongst the successful such organizations in the world. The constantly evolving relationship between industry and academia largely determines FITT’s approach in shaping partnerships for knowledge transfer and economic good. And, in this, the support of the academic community at the Institute is of particular significance as it helps the team at FITT to contribute much more than just efficient services.
The extensive role of FITT at IIT Delhi can be seen in enabling innovations, business partnerships, R&D projects, industrial consultancy, industry visits, mission-oriented meetings, corporate membership etc. This is necessitated by the key agenda of the Foundation to transfer technology and also inspire industrial relevance in teaching and research. Importantly, FITT offers flexible and convenient formats for external engagement of IIT Delhi academics. The two newsletters - FITT Forum and Technopreneur Bulletin showcase some of the best IITD has to offer in terms of its expertise, knowledgebase and infrastructure as well as other opportunities towards research collaboration and translation.
Akin to the Triple-Helix approach, FITT firmly believes that strong cooperation between the Government, Academia and Industry can help to create novel tools and methods to tackle various challenges facing the country in its’ development journey. Strong research and innovation programs can lead to impactful solutions in the areas of infrastructure, pollution control, water, energy, waste management, financial inclusion, security etc. In this context, FITT plays an important role in exploiting the research capability at IIT Delhi. Working at the interface of business and research, it has been at the forefront in enabling innovations and technology
commercialization by giving boost to partnerships and other value-accretive initiatives. FITT provides superior program management services and is steadily increasing its operational landscape which, while encouraging, is challenging it to attain higher levels of effectiveness and success in its stated mission. The Institute is cognizant of the significance of protecting intellectual property and accordingly, over 430 patents have been filed till date and several more are in the pipeline. Equally important is the emphasis laid on technology licensing. The Professional Candidate Registration program for focused knowledge augmentation continues to attract interest of qualified professionals from amongst the neighboring industries and research / academic institutions.
Towards fostering innovation-led entrepreneurship FITT operates a Technology Business Incubator at the Institute. A Biotechnology Business Incubation Facility has also been established. This flagship program (TBIU) at the Institute is amongst the leading technology commercialization set-ups in the country. As on March 2015, there were 11 technology start-up companies resident at the TBIU out of the 50 units admitted, since the launch of this program. M/s Genesis, Novo Informatics, Wrig Nano and Inkilab Technologies are the four start-ups that have made successful TBIU exits in the recent past towards their scale-up and commercial operations. Several Government support programs of BIRAC, DeitY, TDB and MSME are being facilitated by FITT for enabling regional economic growth through techno-entrepreneurship and we see a lot of interest amongst the targeted groups.
FITT is seeing growing interest amongst the faculty members of IIT Delhi to work with industry. Towards this, FITT strives to initiate and sustain partnerships and keeps on strategizing for increased value creation and thus, maintains its’ special position at IIT Delhi. Of special interest is the responsibility entrusted to it to organize science parks on IIT Delhi campuses.
