LEADS-2023<\/strong>
The first batch of LEADS programme was jointly organised by INSA and NCGG in the year 2023, conceptualized by the President of INSA Prof. Ashutosh Sharma and the then Director General of the National Centre for Good Governance (NCGG) Sh. Bharat Lal.  It was a first-of-its-kind initiative for the scientific fraternity and was organised from 12 to 18 July, 2023 at INSA, New Delhi. It was a 7 days fully residential programme.
After a rigorous selection process, a total of forty-four (44) participants were selected from various labs and institutions. These participants, comprised of senior scientists from government laboratories and academic institutions engaged in cutting-edge technology development across diverse domains, brought with them substantial administration experience.
Distinguished speakers, scientists, and leaders from academia and industry across the country also graced the event, adding significant value to the program. The success of the first batch of LEADS was evident, as it effectively achieved its objectives of nurturing future leaders within the scientific community. Encouraged by the positive feedback received, we are excited to announce the upcoming second batch of the LEADS program. This second batch is scheduled to be held from 19th to 25th February 2024. We anticipate another successful event, building on the achievements of the inaugural batch and further contributing to the development of leadership within the scientific community.
