Apr 17 (BNP): The IndiaAI Mission under the Ministry of Electronics and Information Technology (MeitY) has selected 10 Indian artificial intelligence startups for the second cohort of its global acceleration programme. The initiative is designed to support Indian AI companies in scaling their operations internationally and strengthening their presence in global technology markets.

The programme is being implemented in partnership with Station F in Paris and HEC Paris as part of a broader government strategy to boost innovation, international collaboration, and market access for Indian startups in the artificial intelligence sector.

Selected startups will receive structured support including mentorship, access to global industry networks, and exposure to international innovation ecosystems. Each cohort consists of 10 startups chosen through a multi-stage evaluation process focused on innovation potential and scalability.

The startups selected in the second cohort include AI Health Highway, Awiros, Cognecto, Flaunt, GreenFi.ai, Climateforce Technologies, Infiheal Healthtech, InLustro Learning, PredCo, SkyServe (Hyspace Technologies), and TestAIng Solutions.

The programme will begin with a three-week online preparatory phase, followed by a three-month residency in Paris. During this period, participants will engage with global experts, industry leaders, and venture ecosystem stakeholders to support their international expansion plans.

The initiative aligns with India’s National AI Strategy, which emphasizes building global partnerships, enhancing research and development capacity, and integrating Indian startups into leading technology ecosystems worldwide.

Officials also noted that under the wider IndiaAI Mission, significant computing infrastructure has been developed, including large-scale GPU deployment and approval of multiple AI projects, while parallel semiconductor initiatives continue under the Semicon India Programme to strengthen domestic chip manufacturing capabilities.
