Progress Software has called for applications from start-ups for its cohort programme, the Progress Incubator Programme in India. The incubator, located at Progress’ office at Madhapur, provides work space for the hand-picked start-ups. They will also get mentors to help them build products.
“The programme is open to all start-ups and university students across India with a business app idea that is in a prototype stage,” Ramesh Loganathan, Vice-President (Products) and Managing Director, Progress India, said.
The firm, which was set up last year, takes 5-6 start-ups every six months to spin them into a full-fledged start-up from the idea stage.
“The programme takes early stage start-ups on board and helps them build business applications. Participants get access to Progress application development and deployment platforms and data connectivity solutions for free,” he said.
Those who are interested can submit their applications by October 25.
Ramesh said the first edition handheld five early stage start-ups, which included HackerBay Software and Vital Buyer Process Outsource. “Besides helping them build a product, we will also help them in getting access to markets and potential investor opportunities,” he said.
