In order to support start-ups with COVID-19 innovative Solutions and to further fight COVID- 19 pandemic, NITI Aayog’s flagship Atal Innovation Mission (AIM) is on full swing to keep the entrepreneurial spirit high across the country by teaming up with other Ministries and partners.
AIM coordinated and concluded a series of virtual COVID-19 Demo-Days- an initiative to identify promising start-ups with potential COVID-19 innovations to further help them deploy and scale-up their solutions nationwide.
Over 1,000 COVID-19 related start-ups from a diverse set of categories including curative, preventive and assistive solutions were put through two rounds of evaluation, from which more than 70 start-ups were shortlisted for the Virtual COVID-19 Demo Days. These start-ups will receive support in the form of funding, access to manufacturing abilities, supply chain and logistics and finding the right vendors and mentors.
