LEAP logo

India needs innovative, affordable products to solve a range of pressing needs of society. Indian companies need a large number of engineering graduates from mid-ranking colleges who are well-versed in innovative thinking and product design. LEAP is an initiative towards this end.

Maker Bhavan Foundation aims to support and reform engineering education in India by initiating and backing various efforts. LEAP, a project housed at IIT Madras Incubation Cell, was founded by Prof. Timothy Gonsalves, former IIT Mandi director and IIT Madras professor. Inspired by his work on industry-oriented curricula at IIT Mandi and collaborations with startups and product companies at IIT Madras, LEAP focuses on innovative engineering education. MBF has funded the program since its inception and plans to continue its financial support, with LEAP potentially evolving into a non-profit society.
