EMPI conceptualized and initiated India’s first organizational innovation search process. The Awards-first of its kind in India for accelerating India’s Organizational Innovation Movement, was conceptualized by Mr. Pankaj Saran, President, EMPI Group and Dr. Ashok Jain, Vice-President (Academic Development & Research), in the year 2003, when they felt the need to recognize innovative organizations, that are the real engines of socio-economic growth as distinct from individual inventions. Thus, EMPI identified the missing link i.e. A mechanism that should focally enthuse organizations to do things innovatively. The awards for the first time brought and recognized organizational innovations across diverse sectors in corporate, non-corporate, government and network of organizations in one platform.

The awards are part of the larger ‘MISSION INNOVATIVE INDIA’ which was blessed by the President of India Hon’ble Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, in 2005.

The entire movement also received fillip in the year 2006 when EMPI joined hands with The Indian Express and thereafter the Awards were re-christened as the EMPI-The Indian Express Indian Innovation Awards. Further, the association of the Boston Consulting Group with the Awards in the same year as the Research Partner and Process Validator, further helped in strengthening and giving credibility to the Awards.

EMPI conceived and structured India’s first Participative Public Policy Forum on National Manufacturing Sector Policy in 2003 along with FICCI and Business World called ‘We Think for India’ (WTI) under the chairmanship of Justice Ranganath Mishra, Fmr. Chief Justice of India; Dr. R.A. Mashelkar, Fmr. DG, CSIR; Mr. Vittal, Fmr. CVC and Mr. L.V. Saptarishi, Fmr. Addl. Commerce Secretary, Government of India.

166 teams from across the countryparticipated including the IITs, IIMs, consulting firms like KPMG and corporates like TATAs,BHEL etc. The culmination of the competition was at the Prime Minister’s residence where the then Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Atal Bihari Vajpayee gave away the awards to the top teams. A book on ‘India’s Manufacturing Sector–Policy Framework’ was released in the presence of Shri. Arun Jaitley, Minister of Law, Commerce and Industry, Govt. of India WTI was the first kind of its effort in the country wherein students and faculty cametogether tocontribute to policy making and it proved to be a successful model in shapingthe policy narrative of Manufacturing in India
