The Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) today organized a Technology Transfer and Bharatiya Nirdeshak Document (BND) Release Function in New Delhi.
It brought together scientists, industry partners, technology adopters and strategic stakeholders. The programme witnessed the transfer of seven technologies to industry, release of ten Bharatiya Nirdeshak Dravyas (BNDs), and handing over of critical components developed for quantum sensing applications to DRDO. These BNDs are expected to support laboratories, industry and regulatory agencies by providing reliable reference materials and measurement standards.
