Microsoft has joined hands with start-up incubator T-Hub to offer a three-month Accelerator exclusively targeted at growth stage start-ups. The T-Hub will run the accelerator from 10 start-ups from February 2018. Microsoft and T-Hub has signed an agreement at the event.
“We are looking at growth stage start-ups (those who developed a product or service which is earning some revenues) for the accelerator programme. We will funnel the applications to 10 in order to give a focused mentorship,” Jay Krishnan, Chief Executive Officer of T-Hub, has said.
Addressing reporters on the sidelines of the Road to GES (Global Entrepreneurship Summit) here on Sunday, he said the cohort would have start-ups working in the areas of fintech, agri tech, health tech, artificial intelligence and machine learning.
Besides offering technology tools and solutions to the hand-picked start-ups, Microsoft is likely to offer them help from its sales channels to market their products or services.
