"What is a successful model for clinical research in the rural setting? What can be done if we can harness the energy of children playing in the park? Can natural products be dried quickly at room temperature in a non-destructive manner?
What will traffic management for the future broadband networks look like?'' These are some of the sample problems that are to be showcased at the Innovations 2007 to be held in Pune on January 6.
The event is to be organised by Pune chapters of the IIT Bombay Alumni Association and the Indus Entrepreneurs.
Dr Shridhar Shukla, President, IITBAA, Pune Chapter, said the committee had received 145 nominations, of which 15 have been shortlisted.
