From LAb-to-market: INCeNSE PROVIDES the best launchpad

With the birth of every great idea is also born the challenge of translating that idea into a market ready product. Access to deep resources, ace acceleration programs and an innovative community of experts is at the heart of any successful transformation.

Funded by the Govt of Karnataka and birthed and housed at the Centre of Nanoscience and Engineering, INCeNSE provides the best incubation for startups in nanotechnology and deep science.

Access to state-of-the-art labs and fabrication facility that are teeming with the best technologists and faculty with deep domain knowledge will ensure the journey of your nano idea catches the right business pace.

THE BEST PROGRAMS
FOR the BEST ideas

PRE INCUBATION PROGRAM

Pre incubation program recognises the brightest of ideas and helps create Proof-of-concept, without having to set up a company.

This program entitles pre incubatees to access best-in-class infrastructure, labs and mentoring support.

This program enbles smooth movement into the next level, of turning into an INCeNSE incubatee.

INCUBATION PROGRAM

The incubation program is offered to deep science and nano technology start-ups. The incubatees can dip generously into an ecosystem of highly curated advisors and mentors, peer collaborators and subject experts.

The best of infrastructure (workspace, meeting rooms, labs, broadband, telephone, IP support, mentors etc.) is offered for the first twelve months. To deserving incubatees, access to CeNSE facilities is provided at special rates, even beyond the first year.
