Yes. Number of technologies are being transferred to the industry by our R& D institutions. Space technology, missile technology are some of the examples. PSLV, GSLV, Prithvi Missile are all being produced by the Industry now. Same is the case in consumer durable sector. Simputer developed by IISc Team is being produced by BEL, Bangalore. This trend must continue and should be enhanced for making India into a developed nation.
