The Science and Technology Policy Institute (STPI), is a premier Indian organization dedicated to providing evidence-based research, analysis, and policy recommendations in the fields of science, technology, and innovation (STI). Established in 2011 and operating under the aegis of the Office of the Principal Scientific Adviser to the Government of India, STPI plays a pivotal role in shaping India’s science and technology landscape by supporting informed decision-making at the highest levels of government.
STPI’s mission is to bridge the gap between scientific research and policy formulation. It conducts in-depth studies, foresight analyses, and evaluations of science and technology programs to help policymakers design strategies that drive innovation, economic growth, and societal development. The institute focuses on key areas such as emerging technologies, sustainable development, healthcare, energy, and digital transformation, aligning its work with national priorities and global trends.
The organization operates through a multidisciplinary team of experts, including scientists, engineers, economists, and policy analysts. It collaborates with government agencies, academic institutions, industry stakeholders, and international organizations to gather insights and develop actionable recommendations. STPI also organizes workshops, seminars, and conferences to facilitate dialogue among stakeholders and disseminate knowledge on critical STI issues.
One of STPI’s notable contributions is its role in supporting India’s Science, Technology, and Innovation Policy (STIP) 2020, which aims to position India as a global leader in science and technology. The institute also contributes to initiatives like the National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber-Physical Systems and the Atal Innovation Mission, fostering innovation and entrepreneurship across the country.
STPI’s work is guided by a commitment to inclusivity, sustainability, and global competitiveness. By providing data-driven insights and fostering collaboration, STPI empowers India to harness the transformative potential of science and technology for societal benefit. Its efforts are instrumental in advancing India’s vision of becoming a knowledge-driven economy and a leader in global innovation.
