Gate to Biotech Industries, Organizations and Foundations in
India abbreviated as GBIOFIN.
GBIOFIN is a well-known name today, known for its
zest to bring forth converging ideas, innovations, inventions and intellect in
the field of Biotechnology.
GBIOFIN Biotech Services is a registered organization
incubated and nurtured by three Biotech graduates, Asif Razzaq from Integra
University, Lucknow; Nimish Gopal from IIT Roorkee and Vaibhav Shah from Mumbai
University; who met at B-Plan Competition in 2011. At the same moment the three
bio-entrepreneurs discussed the need for a common platform for the
Biotechnology sector in India, and thus, conceived the idea of GBIOFIN.
Entrepreneurship, as the concept itself describes, is setting up new ventures
with the motto of making profits; but GBIOFIN stands in stark contrast to this,
with the sole objective of building the base of Biotechnology in India, rather
than investing in new products and services; striving to spread Biotech
Awareness non-profitably, rather than making profits.
A survey revealed a huge gap between the Industry’s
expectations and the Students’ expectations due to lack of quality labor and
expertise in the field. GBIOFIN has taken up the responsibility of bridging
this gap by being the torch-bearers in helping and guiding biotech students
through unique initiatives.
The GBIOFIN group envisions spreading Biotechnological
Awareness around the globe and aims to enlighten the lamps of Biotechnology in
the minds of young generation. For this very goal, we have launched various
programs and products for Biotech students free of cost or very nominal
prices.
Some of them are:
GATE 100, which is an online study material for all GATE
aspirants and bringing them a step ahead from their competitors to crack one of
India’s most prestigious exams. GECP: GBIOFIN Entrepreneurship Certificate
Program was launched with the aim of helping students in converting their ideas
into money. Majority of the students have ideas in their college days but due
to lack of proper guidance, they are lost.
GECP came into light with the motive
to provide appropriate guidance and to encourage students to become
entrepreneurs. GEIC: GBIOFIN Entrepreneurship and Innovations Certificate is a
3-months online certification course for all aspiring Bioentrepreneurs. Through
this program we provide students with a platform to learn the nuances behind
executing their entrepreneurship ideas and open new opportunities for
themselves as well as others.
YBWA: Young Biotech Writers Award is our initiative to
motivate students to write articles pertaining to the biotech field and the
best articles are published in our National level magazine and acknowledged by
a Certificate of Appreciation. BiotechRings is another initiative to spread the
light of Biotechnology that upholds the status of India’s First National
Student oriented Biotech Magazine. BiotechRings, two editions old now, embodies
in itself, a better understanding of the field and a plethora of new hopes and
possibilities. With a central theme of Biopreneurship, every issue is a novel
step towards success with new authors and different concepts.
“BioExtract” is GBIOFIN's Ambitious Project especially for
B.Tech or B.E or B.Sc(Hons) Students from All India Colleges Pursuing
Biotech/Life-Sciences streams and have started or completed their Bachelor
Thesis Project (During Final or Pre-Final Year) in any stream of Biotechnology.
Top 5 Extracts/Project are featured in our National RNI Registered Magazine
"BiotechRings" Plus they are recognized with an award. Resume
Builder: GBIOFIN launched this unique program of guiding Biotechnology students
build their Resumes/Curriculum Vitae which would enhance their chances of
getting placed for their dream job.
And the list goes on.
GBIOFIN is also credited to be instrumental in assisting
students for placements, training and higher education. We have, now, a network
of 20,000+ online/offline Biotech Students connected to our network, around 50
student partners working from various parts of the nation and a board of more
than 15 exemplary advisors in the form of leading scientists, professors and
industrialists, guiding us all through our journey to excellence. Our group can
also boast for 4 Ideas incubated from GEIC/GECP and excelled towards Business
Plan creation and finally started up. We have, thus, become India’s 1st and
largest start up for creating BiotechAwareness and spreading the spirit of
Biopreneurship.
GBIOFIN has also been proud associates of many International
and National Conferences such as Nanotech-AMU, BIOASIA-Hyderabad, NCBL-Lucknow,
Pharma Tool Box-Switzerland, Global Qatalyst-Singapore, and has also been
sponsoring various BIOTECH Fests in colleges across India like IIT
Roorkee-Cognizance, JIIT Noida-Ribose, Tilak College Mumbai-Anubhav, thus
building the confidence among the Students even at the collegiate level.
With the mission to bring all the information related to
Biotechnology under a single umbrella and provide a complete platform for the
biotech community to excel in the field, we are constantly striving towards a
better tomorrow.
