Incubate your Tech Venture with the IES Incubator Accelerator (IES-INCA)

IES-INCA is inviting IES members and technopreneurs, who are scaling up their Deep Tech ventures, to incubate with us. Deep Tech ventures are companies built on technology IPs that can be protected through the relevant laws. We focus on companies in the Infrastructure Tech, IOT/Smart Cities, Robotics/Automation, and Cleantech/Sustainability space.

Through our incubation program, venture leaders will be matched with suitable business and technology mentors to guide their companies in navigating the market for growth, tech development and fundraising.
