इस ग्रांट के बारे में
The G₹OWTH Fund (Gujarat Raising Opportunities & Worth through Technology Harnessing Fund) is a flagship scheme initiated by the Savli Technology & Business Incubator (STBI), under the Department of Science & Technology, Government of Gujarat. This fund is strategically designed to bolster science and technology-driven startups, including deep-tech ventures, as they navigate the critical 'Valley of Death' during technology validation and commercialisation phases. This specific entry focuses on the Grant-in-Aid component, which is tailored for very early-stage innovations.
The Grant-in-Aid offers crucial non-repayable, milestone-based financial support, up to ₹30 lakh per startup. This funding is aimed at facilitating essential activities such as proof-of-concept validation, prototype development, product refinement, rigorous testing and validation, intellectual property creation and protection, and preparation for regulatory approvals. It also supports early field or clinical studies and pilot deployments, along with other related activities vital for bringing a technology from an early idea (TRL 1) to a validated prototype (TRL 4). This component helps startups de-risk their technology and build a solid foundation before seeking larger seed investments or market entry.
