The incubation journey begins with the submission of a detailed Incubation Proposal Form. Applicants provide information on their innovation, market opportunity, team profile, and development roadmap. The proposal undergoes initial screening by the evaluation committee.
Review by Evaluation Committee
All submitted incubation proposals are reviewed by a designated Evaluation Committee comprising academic experts, industry professionals, and domain specialists. The committee assesses the innovation potential, technical feasibility, market viability, and scalability of the proposed venture before recommending it for the next stage of incubation.
Pre-Incubation (3 Months)
The Pre-Incubation stage focuses on validating the core idea and strengthening its feasibility. During this phase, shortlisted applicants receive structured mentoring, guidance on market assessment, and support in refining their business model to prepare for full-scale incubation.
