Very good blog. Keep up the great work. All the best, Zander
Punjab Infotech has set up an Incubation Centre at Mohali for supporting IT Industry. It is located at C 134, Phase VIII, Industrial area, Mohali.
II start up companies can apply for office space to the Managing Director
Punjab Infotech, Udyog Bhawan, sector-17, 5th Floor,
Chandigarh
It has been set up with TiE, Punjab & Chandigarh and the Government of Punjab. High quality office space with dedicated Power Suppy and centralized air conditioning is available in the Mohali Incubation Centre.
Please see advertisement in the Tribune dated 3rd Sept. 2009 inviting companies to set up their office in the Incubation centre.
Then there are smaller places in Gurgaon like Rowalim Infotech, which encourages incubation by taking care of all infrastructure requirements.
They can be contacted at http://www.rowalim.com.
A must visit place for all budding entrepreneurs.
IIMC just has a cell driven by a lone faculty member. One man show. There is no incubation center at IIM Calcutta. IIMC, on the whole, is not very positive for entrepreneurship.
Tata Institute of Social Sciences (TISS), Mumbai offers 2 Years – Full Time Post Graduate Programme in ‘Social Entrepreneurship’. The Institute will soon set up an Incubation Center. Similar Programme will also be launched at the Hyderabad Campus with focus on ‘technology for social change’.
Hi there,
I am Amul Bhute, we have started our Software and Web site Development operations from our home but now we are in need of more space and improved infrastructure but we cannot afford to buy or build any. In this regard how can STPI, or any other authority/Institution can help me out with their incubation Center. It will be more beneficial for us if you can tell specifically about Nagpur(Maharashtra), information regarding any other place will also do.
thanks and regards,
Amul B.
