Aimed to encourage entrepreneurship in East India and West Bengal, the program is already underway, with a batch of ten India-based startups.
Looking forward, the program invites non-Indian startups to apply for membership.
Harshavardhan Neotia, the group’s chairman and a member of the incubator’s management team, is Israel’s honorary consul in West Bengal.
The program “offers a vigorous, innovative environment where entrepreneurs, investors, mentors, policy makers, corporations, and companies can meet and collaborate,” said Sanjay Sarda a member of the incubator's management team, in a press release.
Mr. Sarda said the program aims to strengthen its ties with Israeli startups. “We believe that East India, and particularly West Bengal, are at a turning point, creating a magnitude of unique opportunities,” he said.
