SIIC, IIT Kanpur’s Startups

The Startup Incubation & Innovation Centre (SIIC), a technology business incubator run by IIT Kanpur, and Indian Angel Network (IAN) have partnered to develop the “IAN-IIT Kanpur Future Tech Accelerator Program.”

In addition to Prof. Amitabha Bandyopadhyay, co-professor in charge of innovation and incubation at IIT Kanpur, Dr. Nikhil Agarwal, CEO of FIRST and AIIDE-CoE, Dr. Sanchita Chaudhary, VP of Business Development at SIIC, Deepak Agarwal, Consultant at SIIC, Mr. Rajnish Kapur, Managing Partner, and Mr. Pritish Sehgal, AVP, from Yantram Medtech, Arthavedika Tech, ProPlant, Workers Union Support, Secure Blink, Starwinglobal Era, Arishti Info Labs, and Cyber Nexa are the eight firms that had been shortlisted for the first cohort of the IAN-IIT Kanpur Future Tech Accelerator Program.

The “IAN – IIT Kanpur Future Tech Accelerator Program” is a structured, 4-6 month programme that will accept the cohort’s eight startups. Mentoring support on an individual basis, business and investor connections, and honing fundraising proposal decks.

Prof. Amitabha Bandyopadhyay, co-professor in charge (Incubation & Innovation), commented on the opening of the Accelerator Program in a statement, saying that “this Accelerator Program delivers vital support to the early-stage companies targeted at making them revenue-regenerating firms.

I have no doubt that the cohort that was nominated will live up to the program’s goals and become a successful startup. It is an urgently needed initiative to support the country’s startup ecosystem. I anticipate its successful execution and the results we obtain via it as a partner institute.

IIT Kanpur and Indian Angel Network (IAN) are pleased to announce the beginning of the “IIT Kanpur-IAN Future Tech Accelerator” programme, continued Rajnish Kapur, Managing Partner, IAN Fund®. The goal of this programme is to assist businesses in better understanding their target market, better shaping their product, and improving their capacity to engage investors through storytelling. The accelerator will work with eight companies in our first cohort, ranging from social impact to health tech.

“The collaboration between IIT Kanpur and IAN combines the knowledge and resources of one of India’s top technical institutes with those of one of the most productive angel investment networks. Through this partnership, companies will have access to cutting-edge technology, industry connections, and guidance from seasoned businesspeople and investors.

“I would like to extend my heartfelt congratulations to the shortlisted cohort of eight outstanding startups under the “IAN-IIT Kanpur Accelerator Program,” remarked Dr. Nikhil Agarwal, CEO of FIRST & AIIDE-CoE. Their exposure to the Indian Angel Network and IIT Kanpur, two of the top startup ecosystems in India, will be facilitated by the structured curriculum. I think they will benefit much from this experience. I have big dreams for these startups. Such partnerships can significantly alter Indian startups by assisting them on their path to become successful business models.

To recognise the importance of National Startup Day in the constantly changing national startup ecosystem, the Program was introduced on that day in 2023. Its goal is to assist these domestic companies in implementing their cutting-edge technological solutions and making them market-ready.
