 Seeking to encourage design talent among students and young professionals, two and three wheeler maker TVS Motor Company has unveiled 'TVS INDUS' Design Honours initiative, with a vision to make India a global design powerhouse.

Deriving its name from the Indus Valley Civilisation, the annual TVS INDUS initiative symbolises the aspiration of TVS Motor Company to blend India's rich design heritage with a "progressive and forward-looking" mindset.

Evolved under the Centre's 'Make in India' campaign, the idea of 'Design in India' concept would focus on solutions that are meaningful, inclusive and deeply rooted in the country's diverse landscapes, lifestyles and people, a release from TVS Motor Company said on Wednesday.

The TVS INDUS Design Honours platform intends to promote 'Design' among the youth and nurture talent from both design and non-design backgrounds to ignite the global conversation on the future of mobility, he said.
