इस ग्रांट के बारे में
The Research and Development Project Grant, an initiative under the Karnataka Startup Policy 2025-2030, aims to catalyze cutting-edge innovation by supporting collaborative R&D projects. This grant is specifically designed for startups operating within Karnataka who form a consortium with academic/research institutions and industry partners. The core objective is to foster a 'Triple Helix Model' of innovation, bringing together the strengths of industry, academia, and startups to drive significant technological advancements and create a vibrant R&D ecosystem in the state. By co-funding up to 50% of eligible project costs, capped at ₹1 crore, the program seeks to de-risk ambitious research initiatives and accelerate their translation into market-ready solutions.
This grant supports the development of novel products, processes, and services that address critical challenges across various sectors. The collaborative approach ensures that research is grounded in real-world industry needs while benefiting from academic rigor. The Government of Karnataka is committed to nurturing a robust innovation environment, and this grant serves as a cornerstone of that vision, empowering startups to push the boundaries of technology and contribute to the state's economic growth and global competitiveness.

चयन प्रक्रिया
The selection process for the R&D Project Grant involves a multi-stage evaluation to identify projects with high innovation potential, strong collaborative frameworks, and clear R&D objectives. Initially, submitted proposals are screened for eligibility and completeness. A technical review committee, comprising experts from relevant scientific and industrial domains, will assess the scientific merit, technological innovation, feasibility, and potential impact of the proposed R&D projects. This is followed by a financial assessment to ensure the budget is realistic and justified. Shortlisted consortia may be invited to present their project plan and answer questions from a high-level selection committee, which includes representatives from the Government of Karnataka and key stakeholders. The final selection prioritizes projects that demonstrate robust collaboration under the Triple Helix Model and have the highest potential for creating significant economic and social value within the state.
