This will involve hands-on work on an assigned tech project. This could mean working across any stage of the idea-to-product development cycle, including the design stage involving simulations and calculations or the prototype development stage. We have fully-equipped labs and equipment that support robust technical testing and validation, but we encourage going beyond this to refine prototypes with end-user feedback as well.

• Partnering with a leading incubator like iCreate would add application orientation to their bank of conceptual knowledge, enhancing their relevance and appeal in the eyes of both the industry and students.
• It will enable them to tap into the wealth of insights and best practices that iCreate has acquired about how innovation can transform society and the economy, thanks to our work with hundreds of startups across different domains.

• iIAP will provide participants with practical exposure to the startup ecosystem and the workings of a startup.
• It will inculcate in them an entrepreneurial mindset, where one learns to think like an entrepreneur, regardless of whether one is a startup or an ‘intrapreneur’ working in an organisation.
• An engagement with iCreate opens up many opportunities for students, even after they complete the iIAP. Suitable candidates could join iCreate and get to work in a stimulating environment as part of a vibrant innovation ecosystem. Those interested in starting up may find iCreate to be an enabling platform that provides them with a winning combination of mentors, market connects, grants and investments.
