Atal Incubation Centres: an initiative of the government to nurture innovative startups

Indian government always introduces new initiatives to encourage startups and offer opportunities for raising entrepreneurs to develop. Here, we are talking about one of the latest government plans, the Atal Innovation Mission.

AIM aims to encourage the establishment of new incubation centers called Atal IncubationCentres. These centers will nourish start-up businesses that are breaking new ground in their pursuit to become extensible and sustainable businesses.

These centers build preeminent incubation amenities in diverse sectors of the country with required physical infrastructure in terms of funds, materials, machines, and operating facilities, including sectoral experts for mentoring the start-ups, supporting business planning, and access to seed capital as well as training.

How does AIC Work?

These AtalIncubation Centres offer startups valuable guidance, technological aid, and access to investors, networking, and facilitating a host of other resources.

The government holds the incubatees to set up a sustainable, scalable, and productive business model by presenting physical infrastructure and value-added support services.

Startupsalso receive direction through the powerful chain of coaches who give sector-specific information and real-world practical direction.  Events and inspirational programs are organized.

Startups get complete opportunities to leverage from forging alliances and networks with academia to funding resources, and support from existing incubators.

Moreover, now, startups do not need to worry about manpower. The scheme supports the building of a strong team with adequate knowledge and experience.
