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.
