Overview |

The KNS is unique, state of the art and innovative system powered by VEDAS, the intelligent software suite. KNS is not about Education delivery; It is about knowledge delivery for empowerment of every Indian by 2020. The KNS of Mindlogicx is creating a knowledge forum to share the knowledge - Implicit and explicit knowledge to be captured, stored, processed and retrieved for empowered decisions in an unified virtual forum. The forum, which can change the economic fabric of the nation provides facilities for people to meet, discuss and decide on issues that might affect the society at large. Mindlogicx’s Knowledge forum is the culmination of many years of intensive and focused goal to empower every Indian and acts as the platform for information exchange and interchange |

| The logic behind KNS |
| |
The 21st Century has been acknowledged worldwide as the 'Knowledge Century'. Every nation now finds itself operating in an increasingly competitive and globalised international environment where the information infrastructure, research and innovation systems, education and lifelong learning, and regulatory frameworks are crucial variables. |
|
| |
In the next few decades India will probably have the largest set of young people in the world. Given this demographic advantage over the countries of the West and even China, we are optimally positioned, in the words of our Prime Minister, to "leapfrog in the race for social and economic development" by establishing a knowledge-oriented paradigm of development. |
| |
The overall task of the KNS is to take steps that will give India the ‘knowledge edge’ in the coming decades, i.e. to ensure that our country becomes a leader in the creation, application and dissemination of knowledge. |
| |
Creation of new knowledge principally depends on strengthening the education system, promoting domestic research and innovation in laboratories as well as at the grassroots level, and tapping foreign sources of knowledge through more open trading regimes, foreign investment and technology licensing. |
| |
One of the world’s largest economies, India has made enormous strides in its economic and social development in the past two decades. But according to a new World Bank report, India can do much more to leverage its strengths in today’s knowledge-based global economy. |

| Grooming World Class Knowledge Workers |
| |
India already has many highly educated and vocationally qualified people who are making their mark, domestically and globally, in science, engineering, information technology (IT), and research and development (R&D). But they represent only a small fraction of the total population. |
| |
To create a sustained cadre of 'knowledge workers,' India needs to make its education system more demand driven to meet the emerging needs of the economy and to keep its highly qualified people in the country. Some ways of making the system more demand driven are to allow the private sector to fill the burgeoning demand for higher education by relaxing bureaucratic hurdles, and through better accreditation systems for private providers of education and training. Increased university-industry partnerships to translate research into applications can yield economic value. Lifelong learning programs can be used to meet the learning needs of all, both within and outside the school system, including using distance learning technologies to expand access to and the quality of formal education and lifelong training programs. KNS aims to bridge the gap preciously. |
