Sant Gadge Baba Amravati University's incubator, the SGBAU Research & Incubation Foundation (SRIF), is based on the university campus in Amravati, Maharashtra. It is aimed first at the university's own students, faculty and alumni, and it also takes outside innovators who meet one of its stated criteria. The foundation is a Section 8 company registered under the Companies Act 2013, and it has run the university's incubation centre since September 2019.

How the incubator works

Founders apply for membership through an incubation application form, a pre-incubation form or a virtual incubation form. The forms are linked from the startup page, and the application page says the form can also be requested by email from the CEO's office. Applications go through a pre-scan review, a review by a panel and an interview with an expert panel. Selected proposals get a letter of admission, and the team then signs an agreement and receives services on campus.

Membership charges are one time and non-transferable, and membership is valid for a stated period. Members get access to expert talks, discounted master classes, training and conferences, a membership card with access to an online portal, information on incubation proposals and competitions, and discounted mentoring that must be requested at least two weeks ahead.

Who can apply

The application page lists these routes in: faculty members on the university campus; students and alumni of university departments; partner companies of the centre and organisations wanting an offshoot of an existing business; partner universities and institutions on campus; agencies linked to the centre's research; and grassroots innovators whose proposal meets one of the stated tests. The tests are intellectual property created at the centre and transferred to a company, intellectual property created outside the centre by a faculty member, student or alumnus and transferred to a company, proposals with social and strategic impact, and proposals that use the centre's facilities. The pages read do not state a residence rule, a minimum stage or a closing date for intake.

Facilities

The centre has about 11,000 sq. ft of floor space with a reception area, a conference room with LCD projectors, a video conference room, a meeting room and a pantry. It also gets access to university facilities that the university lists among its centralised facilities, including the Fabrication Laboratory and the Central Instrumentation Cell.

Mentoring and support

Mentors come from industry, including chief executives, promoters, senior managers, start-up specialists and operational experts. Mentoring covers the business plan, team building, fundraising and market linkage. The centre also lists legal support, networking and investor support among its services, and it helps with intellectual property, including patent filing.

Scale and what the figures mean

The centre's website gives different counts. Its startup page says 13 startups have been incubated, while its homepage counters show 30 registered incubatees, 35 pre-incubatees, 65 mentors and 450 jobs generated. The counters are undated and the pages do not agree, so read the figures as the centre's own.

Programmes beyond incubation

The centre runs an open innovation platform where organisations and individuals can post a problem in the area of business incubation. Registered solvers submit solutions, and selected solutions receive an award. The centre has also announced the AMRUT-SRIF Incubation Scheme, which is being launched under a memorandum of understanding signed in July 2026 with the AMRUT Institute, Pune. It aims to support 100 budding innovators and startups. The intake route for that scheme is not on the pages read.

Who runs it

Dr. Milind Barhate, the university's Vice-Chancellor, chairs the foundation. Prof. Swati S. Sherekar is its director, Mr. Anand Yadav is chief executive officer and Mr. Amol Ashok Hirulkar is the business incubator manager.
