AIIMS Patna Incubation Centre

AIIMS Patna Incubation and Innovation Council (APIIC) is a dedicated MedTech incubator established as an Inclusive Technology Business Incubator under the Department of Science and Technology's NIDHI initiative. Formally launched in March 2026, it is Eastern India's first structured MedTech incubation centre, supported by funding from Blockchain for Impact (BFI).

The centre supports healthcare startups through Ignition Grants, mentorship, clinical validation within AIIMS Patna's hospital infrastructure, regulatory guidance, and investor connections. It provides early-stage innovators a pathway to refine and test medical products in a real clinical environment. Eastern India has historically had limited MedTech representation, and APIIC is designed to change that by creating a structured environment where health innovators can thrive.

Who Benefits

MedTech and digital health startups, medical device innovators, and healthcare researchers in Eastern India seeking clinical validation, regulatory support, and seed funding within a premier medical institution.
