One of world's leading Air Compressor manufacturers, Elgi Equipments Limited, along with PSGR Krishnammal College for Women, felicitated the first batch of girl students who completed their internship at GRG-ELGi Digital Innovation Dojo on Thursday.

ELGi and GRG came together in September 2022 to inaugurate the ‘GRG-ELGi Digital Innovation Dojo' at the college's GRG Campus in Peelamedu. This is the first Digital Innovation Dojo, in line with ELGi’s digital transformation strategy based on the premise of 'Experiment, Start Small & Scale Fast'. The partnership aims to provide a plethora of opportunities for women to acquire specialized technical skills while defining solutions and exploring areas of development, ultimately resulting in valuable industry experience for the participant students, together with workable solutions and fresh perspectives for ELGi.

During the launch of this Innovation Dojo, ELGi said that all interns will have the opportunity to work on technology platforms spanning Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Virtual/Augmented reality, along with Robotic Process Automation (RPA).

The students will also be able to interact, learn, work, and be mentored by ELGi’s industry leaders across the globe, empowering them to explore various employment opportunities in the digital transformation arena.

Keeping in line with this, 32 students of the college  worked on various projects across functions at ELGi, using the agile scrum framework. The internship was 3-month program.

A valedictory ceremony to felicitate the students was held at Chandra Seminar Hall, PSGR Krishnammal College for Women, Coimbatore. 

The event was presided over by Anvar Jay Varadaraj, Executive Director, Elgi Equipments Limited, in the presence of Dr. R. Nandini, Chairperson of the GRG Institutions.
