CIME in Association with Focus Group: Shaping the Future of Innovation Management in India
In today’s hyper-competitive and technology-driven world, the survival and success of businesses depend not just on performance, but on their ability to innovate. Whether it's creating new products, refining processes, or disrupting entire markets, innovation lies at the core of growth and sustainability. Recognizing this need for structured innovation leadership in India, CIMEPRO Institute, in collaboration with the visionary Focus Group, is pioneering a new era in Innovation Management through globally recognized programs and world-class training.
This powerful alliance is not just offering another certification—it’s shaping the future of how innovation is perceived, taught, and practiced across industries in India.
What is CIME and the Focus Group?
CIMEPRO Institute, which stands for The Center for Innovation Management Excellence, is India’s premier institution dedicated to advancing the discipline of innovation. It’s more than just a training center—it's a launchpad for forward-thinking professionals who want to become certified innovation leaders.
Backed by the Focus Group, a trailblazing business conglomerate with a history of nurturing industry-transforming initiatives, CIMEPRO Institute aims to bridge the gap between raw ideas and scalable business solutions. Together, they are redefining the roadmap of Innovation Management in the Indian context.
A Vision Beyond Traditional Training
At its core, CIMEPRO Institute is driven by the belief that innovation is not the job of a few—it is a mindset that must be ingrained at all levels of an organization. This is where their strategic partnership with the Global Innovation Management Institute (GIMI) plays a critical role. As the official Certified Training Partner (CTP) of GIMI in India, CIMEPRO ensures that professionals and organizations are not only exposed to global frameworks but also trained to apply them in locally relevant ways.
But what makes this collaboration with the Focus Group even more impactful is their shared mission—to empower Indian enterprises, startups, and professionals to lead with innovation.
Why Innovation Management Matters More Than Ever
Before diving deeper, let’s understand why Innovation Management is so crucial today.
Most businesses in India and around the world recognize the need for innovation, but very few know how to do it effectively. Often, companies fall into the trap of treating innovation as a one-off brainstorming session or a department-specific goal. This results in inconsistent outcomes, wasted resources, and missed opportunities.
Innovation Management is the answer to this problem. It is the discipline of managing innovation systematically—from ideation to execution. It involves creating a culture, processes, and systems that support continuous improvement and breakthrough thinking. It’s no longer a luxury; it’s a core business function.
And that’s exactly what CIMEPRO Institute and Focus Group are delivering through their expertly designed Innovation Management Programs.
How CIMEPRO Institute Stands Out
Unlike conventional training institutions, CIMEPRO Institute focuses on practical, real-world applications of innovation. Led by experienced innovation leaders like Prashant Nasery, a certified innovation professional with deep industry roots, the institute doesn’t just teach theory—it trains professionals to lead innovation.
Here’s how CIMEPRO makes a difference:
- Globally Recognized Curriculum
CIMEPRO delivers multi-level GIMI Certification programs—from Innovation Associate (Level 1) to Innovation Master (Level 4)—allowing professionals to gradually build their capabilities and become champions of innovation in their fields.
- Hands-On Learning
Participants don’t just listen to lectures; they work on live projects, solve real problems, and apply tools like TRIZ, SCAMPER, Business Model Canvas, and Design Thinking frameworks. This ensures practical skills that translate directly into workplace impact.
- India-Focused, Globally Valid
While GIMI provides the international framework, CIMEPRO Institute adapts the training to Indian market dynamics, industry challenges, and case studies—creating the perfect balance between global excellence and local relevance.
- Focus Group: The Force Behind the Movement
The Focus Group, which supports and collaborates with CIME, brings to the table decades of experience in building transformative enterprises. Their mission aligns seamlessly with CIME’s objectives—to nurture innovation leaders who can drive growth, solve complex challenges, and make a global impact.
By backing CIMEPRO Institute, the Focus Group is contributing to a national goal—preparing India for the Innovation Economy.
Impact of CIMEPRO’s Innovation Management Programs
The ripple effect of CIMEPRO’s programs is already visible across sectors:
- Startups are learning how to craft disruptive business models that stand out in crowded markets.
- Corporates are training their teams to foster a culture of innovation that goes beyond R&D departments.
- Public Sector units are discovering how innovation can drive efficient governance and citizen services.
- Educators are integrating modern innovation practices into academic curriculums, preparing students for future job markets.
Each participant walks away with not just a certificate, but a toolkit for innovation—strategies, methodologies, and confidence to lead change.
