AIC Mahindra Incubation Program — Eligibility Criteria

The AIC Mahindra Incubation Program targets early-stage founders and innovators, typically those with an idea, a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), or early revenue, who are looking to solidify their foundation and accelerate growth.

Founders must demonstrate a clear understanding of the problem they are addressing, including the market need, target audience, and the potential impact of their proposed solution. They are expected to exhibit commitment and the discipline to persevere through uncertainty, maintaining momentum even when faced with difficulties, as resilience is critical for startup success.

Applicants must also show openness, indicating a willingness to absorb feedback, reflect on it, test assumptions, and refine their approach. This adaptability is crucial for iterating on ideas and pivoting when necessary to achieve product-market fit. Finally, founders must possess a serious desire and intent to build something meaningful, driven by impact and innovation rather than passive participation.

AIC Mahindra Incubation Program is open to startups at the idea, product and revenue stage. It is open to startups registered anywhere in India.
