The organisation has been supported by 20 top institutes such as Ahmedabad Management Association, All India Management Association, ISRO, ASSOCHAM, CII, GCCI, GICEA and GITCO, to name a few. "The GIS will seek to create a strategy for fostering innovations at the state and sectoral levels with a major focus on MSME & post-graduate students from professional courses, focusing on five key parameters: platform, inclusion, eco-system, drivers and discourse," said Sunil Shah, chairman of Gujarat Innovation Society. He said that this will create an eco-system to boost innovation performance in Gujarat.

Eminent personalities of the city, academicians, scientists, industrialists and officials and members of different institutes are expected to attend the function.
"This is a unique and exciting endeavour, and GIS hopes to initiate dialogue and debate at various forums to articulate an innovation strategy, leverage the enormous talent that we have in the state, bring about a change in mindsets, create opportunities, and ultimately unleash the innovation potential that is latent in our country," said Shah.
