IIM Ahmedabad’s CIIE Launched $25 Million Bharat Inclusion Initiative- Details, Aim, Purpose
IIM-Ahmedabad’s Centre for Innovation, Incubation and Entrepreneurship (CIIE) has launched the Bharat Inclusion Initiative, with a commitment of $25 million from The Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Omidyar Network and Michael and Susan Dell Foundation.
The Bharat Inclusion initiative will focus on building knowledge and foster innovation or incubating and backing startups that work in areas such as financial inclusion, livelihood, education and health.
The Bharat Inclusion initiative will aim at channelizing approximately $25 million over the next 3-4 years towards backing game-changing start-ups leveraging the ongoing digital transformation in India, to create access to services that were hitherto inaccessible for a large segment of Indians.
Chairperson, CIIE Initiatives, Neharika Vohra informed that the Bharat Inclusion Initiative aims to provide a continuum of solutions to inclusion focused tech entrepreneurs across the pre-incubation, seed and scale-up stage and help them jump to the next orbit.
The CIIE at IIM Ahmedabad helps entrepreneurs turn ideas into viable businesses.
