About IoT Incubation Programme

The IoT Incubation Programme gives startups a seat at the centre's Bengaluru facility, with lab access, mentorship and enterprise connects. It runs on rolling intake rather than fixed cohorts, so startups join as they are accepted.

What you get

  • A seat in the Bengaluru centre, in open desks, ESD lab tables or cabins
  • Access to the InnovateLab test and measurement equipment and development kits
  • Mentorship and market access, including enterprise pilots and co-create work
  • Cloud credits from curated providers, and help with IP and certifications

Who can apply

  • IoT, AI, ML, deep-tech and other emerging-technology startups
  • Startups with at least a prototype

How selection works: shortlisted startups pitch to a jury of industry, government and academic members, who score innovation, feasibility and relevance to market.

How to apply: use the F6S form linked from the centre's startup page.
