IIT Bhubaneswar has already drawn national attention for its breakthroughs. Its Silicon Carbide Research and Innovation Centre, established jointly with SiC Sem Pvt. Ltd., made
headlines recently for achieving the growth of a 200mm diameter SiC ingot in India for the very first time — an achievement seen as a milestone in domestic semiconductor capability.

The establishment of the semiconductor and ESDM park, coupled with IIT Bhubaneswar’s ongoing innovation and start-up ecosystem, is being seen as a decisive step in aligning Odisha with India’s larger mission of
technological self-reliance under the India Semiconductor Mission.
