MUL is dedicated to providing robust and quality higher education to society. Likewise, it is focused on promoting the entrepreneurship culture to develop scholars who are job creators rather than job seekers. In line with that, ORIC was established in 2018. Since its inception, ORIC has become a bridge between the industry and academia. The efforts of ORIC are focused on commercializing the high-quality research produced at Minhaj University Lahore into meaningful and substantial outputs.

ORIC department has established a Business incubation center that provides experiential skills and development opportunities to university staff and students; promotes innovation and allows for the commercialization of ideas through a Start-Up culture for entrepreneurs.
