Entrepreneurship Cell (e-Cell)

Objectives
The Entrepreneurship Cell (E-Cell) at Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology (SMIT) aims
to cultivate an entrepreneurial and innovation ecosystem among students, faculty and
staff members. It encourages and facilitates innovation and start-up culture on campus.
Established to bridge the gap between academia and industry / enterprises.

Rationale behind Establishing the E-Cell

Recognizing the need to equip students with the knowledge and skills necessary for
launching their own ventures. The E-Cell organizes various workshops, seminars, and
bootcamps. Additionally, it offers mentorship, networking opportunities, and access to
funding to support student start-ups. The E-Cell has played a crucial role in promoting
entrepreneurship on campus, resulting in several successful start-ups emerging from
SMIT in recent years.

A Brief Overview of the E-Cell’s Impact

The effectiveness of the E-Cell is evidenced by the numerous successful start-ups orig-
inating from the institute in recent years. According to a recent survey, these start-ups
have made significant contributions to the economy. The annual cohort conducted un-
der IIC and Pre- Incubation Centre selects promising start-ups for an intensive incu-
bation process where they are provided with a personal office space and amenities.
Moreover, the E-Cell has been successful in fostering innovation and creativity among
students. By collaborating with industry experts and entrepreneurs, the E-Cell exposes
students to current industry trends and developments. A measure of this can be wit-
nessed as IIC-SMIT was given 3.5/4 stars for the year 2021-22 for the continued impact
and efforts and SMIT achieved ARIIA ranking as ‘Band Performer’.

 Message from The
Dean

Warm greetings from Sikkim Manipal Institute of Medical Sciences (SMIMS).

I deem it my privilege to welcome you to join SMIMS. At SMIMS we strive for excellence in
teaching, research and promoting the health of East Indian population. Our goal is, to
make our students understand the subjects in the medical field well and develop both
professional skills and attitudes so that they feel confident to serve not only in India but
also anywhere in the world. We want to inculcate in our students, the habit of ethical
practice and encourage them to be compassionate doctors.

Over the last 23 years, SMIMS has created a niche for itself by being consistently ranked
among the top 10 emerging medical colleges in India (8th among top 23 private medical
colleges in India as per Outlook- ICARE rankings 2023). This has been possible because
of the dedicated and erudite faculty; and world-class facilities for learning. Our college
has produced some of the most successful doctors in India and abroad. I appeal to you
to visit the testimonial section for a glimpse of testimonials from our alumni. SMIMS has
its own teaching hospital - Central Referral Hospital (CRH), the only state-of-the-art
private hospital in the state of Sikkim. The Government of Sikkim, under the public-private
partnership has kindly allowed our students to have clinical skills learning at the State
Government-run Tertiary Care Hospital and PHUs. The medical college also has a good
reputation in the field of research. Many of our faculty have received research grants
from various government and non-government organizations. Students are encouraged
to participate in ICMR-funded research projects and present them in Student Research
Conferences. We also encourage our students to participate in co-curricular activities
and sports.

On behalf of the management and faculty, I assure you the best of experience at SMIMS.
Once again, welcome to SMIMS
