Explore urban systems opportunities in India
UK businesses in the urban systems sector are invited to take part in an exciting new programme designed to help them grow and succeed in the Indian market.
Innovate UK’s Global Incubator Programme in Hyderabad offers innovative small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) the chance to collaborate with T-Hub, one of India’s leading innovation campuses.
Running for six months from April 2025, the programme includes two trips to Hyderabad, where participants will receive hands-on support to develop their ideas, connect with local partners, and tap into new markets. Innovate UK will cover travel, accommodation, and in-market expenses for one representative from each company, making this a unique opportunity to explore international expansion with minimal risk.
The programme is aimed at businesses working on solutions to urban challenges such as
- electrification in transport and energy systems
- sustainable water and waste management
- encouraging net zero behaviour change among citizens
Participants will benefit from workshops, mentoring, and networking events, as well as desk space at T-Hub during their time in India.
Applications close on 28 February 2025.
Potential applicants can join an online briefing on 14 January 2025 for more information.
