Startup incubator T-Hub has launched the fourth cohort of its mobility accelerator programme ‘Charge’ to back 21 startups operating in the segment, including EV charging, shared mobility, AI-led fleet and more.
Backed by AIM (Atal Innovation Mission), this programme will assist startups in expanding their products via mentorship, access to markets and pilot opportunities.
“Our earlier mobility cohorts have demonstrated the value of deep engagement between startups, corporates and government partners in building sustainable transport solutions. With Charge, we are extending this model to help 21 new startups innovate in EV infrastructure, batteries and shared mobility,” said AIC T-Hub’s chief executive officer Rajesh Kumar Adla.
During the 12-week programme at T-Hub, participating startups will gain access to mentors, corporate networks, and government partnerships to support the deployment and scaling of their businesses.
Launched in 2015, Hyderabad-based incubator T-Hub was built as a partnership between the Telangana government, three academic institutions – International Institute of Information Technology, Indian School of Business and National Academy of Legal Studies and Research, and the local private sector to support startups at different stages.
Meanwhile, AIM is a flagship initiative launched under NITI Aayog in 2016. The programme works towards boosting entrepreneurship in India. Currently, the country has more than 70 Atal Incubation Centres (AICs).
