Fragmentation
Ideas sit in separate systems
Student, faculty and operational proposals are scattered across departments and forms.
Connect campus ideas with research and impact
Give students, faculty and innovation teams a structured path from submission through evaluation, development and reporting.
One pipeline across the institution
Evidence ready for reporting
Trusted by governments, incubators and accelerators.
Campus innovation loses momentum when every programme runs separately
Governance
Review rules vary by programme
Criteria, confidentiality, conflicts and ownership checks happen inconsistently or too late.
Impact
Outcomes disappear after selection
Institutions count submissions and events but struggle to follow ideas into prototypes and adoption.
One innovation pipeline for the whole institution
Manage student challenges, faculty proposals, expert review, development milestones and institutional reporting in one governed system.

University innovation platform questions
Not necessarily. SanchiAPP focuses on programmes, submissions, evaluations, development and ecosystem engagement. Research systems may continue to manage grants, ethics, publications and researcher profiles.
Yes. Each participant group can have its own eligibility, forms, approval stages, reviewer groups and evidence requirements.
Publish clear terms before submission, restrict sensitive material and refer potentially protectable work to the authorised institutional team. Platform timestamps do not determine ownership.
Yes, where institutional policy permits it. External reviewers should receive restricted access, confidentiality obligations and conflict declarations.
No. The platform can structure and export evidence, but the institution remains responsible for current definitions, audits and formal submission requirements.
