Today, India is generating entrepreneurs and innovators from all communities who are acknowledged and accepted. But until a decade ago there was no recognition, no medium for the innovators to showcase their innovation to the world and that’s when Aegis School of Business came up with a platform – Aegis Graham Bell Awards, where the budding innovators and entrepreneurs can be recognised and awarded for their work.
The Aegis School of Business, Data Science and Telecom has established the Aegis Graham Bell Awards as a tribute to the father of the telephony, Sir Alexander Graham Bell. This Award is intended to promote innovation, entrepreneurship in the field of Telecom, Internet, Media & Edutainment (TIME) and Social, Mobility, Analytics, Cloud (SMAC) to provide recognition for outstanding contributions in this field in India.
