Incubation

Incubation support for ideas that have passed a first technical test. We are not a capital provider; we are the layer between a working prototype and the institutions that can fund, test or adopt it.

What incubation support covers

  • Structured mentoring against a validation plan the innovator owns.
  • Introductions to testing and certification facilities.
  • Freedom-to-operate and prior-art checks before money is committed.
  • Guidance on grants, schemes and mission funding available in India.
  • Help assembling the documentation that funders and buyers ask for.

We are technology-agnostic but weight our support towards ideas with a clear environmental or livelihood benefit. Write to us with a one-page description of the idea and its current stage.
