Rs 50 lakh Incubation Centre to come up at Arts College

Hyderabad-based Hansa Solutions has collaborated with the Government College (A), Rajahmundry on Tuesday to establish an Incubation Centre with a financial aid of Rs 50 lakh.
A sprawling new building for the Incubation Centre spanning 4,000 square feet will be constructed on the college campus, solely committed to training 2,000 students annually, in line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and as per the instructions of the UGC which mandates every higher education institution must set up an Incubation Centre.
The focus will be on launching startup programmes in horticulture, agriculture, healthcare, and tourism sectors, while also specializing in jute bag manufacturing, producing safety napkins, and equipping students with cutting-edge IT skills tailored to industry demands.
