About NITRRFIE Incubation Programme

NITRRFIE's incubation programme is the foundation's main route for startups. Admitted startups get individual office space, internet access and computing facilities, along with the institute's shared spaces and, through the Institute Startup Committee, access to departmental resources.

What you get

  • Office space, internet and access to computing facilities
  • Registration and filing help, legal advice and intellectual property filings
  • Mentoring from empanelled professionals, and introductions to alumni, angels and investors

Who can apply

  • Founders with a technology-driven startup idea
  • Applicants linked to NIT Raipur, or outside applicants with relevant ideas

How selection works: a business plan, a meeting, and a pitch to a panel of experts. Admitted startups sign an agreement with the foundation.

How to apply: submit the application through the online form linked from the site's Apply for Incubation button.

The site describes equity and/or revenue sharing in return for support, and a nominal monthly charge for office space. The two policy pages list eligible applicants differently, so check before applying as a student.
