story
At GIEC, we are building a future where innovation is inclusive, grounded, and driven by purpose.

Founded in July 2021 within the vibrant academic environment of Vinayaka Mission’s Research Foundation, and anchored at the AVIT campus in Mahabalipuram, GIEC continues to evolve as a sector-agnostic innovation hub. Drawing strength from the university’s campuses in Chennai, Salem, Karaikal, and Puducherry, we align innovation with regional potential and academic depth.
We are not just an incubator. We are your starting ground — where entrepreneurial journeys begin with clarity, support, and connection. At GIEC, we help young talents find their direction, connect with the right mentors, and access facilities that empower their path forward. Whether you’re shaping solutions in biotechnology, engineering, legal innovation, or community-based enterprises, our platform is built to support your growth.
