Our mission
By providing a platform for entrepreneurship and innovation, we accelerate the development of India’s startup ecosystem.
Community & ecosystem
A unique, thriving community of Indian startups, international companies, and innovative social enterprises.
Corporate innovation
We work with corporates on their innovation journey, to help them engage effectively with the startup ecosystem.
Accelerators & programmes
We work with founders at every stage of their entrepreneurial journey, providing coaching and mentoring from top founders.
Who we work with
Enterprises and portfolio companies.
What we stand on
Four things we will not trade away.
- 01
Practitioner depth
We have built and scaled startups ourselves, and run large GCCs. Advice here comes from people who have carried the payroll, not from people who have read about it.
- 02
Enterprise grade
Governance, IP protection, compliance and executive reporting are built into every engagement rather than bolted on when procurement asks.
- 03
Startup speed
We operate with the agility of a startup — faster setup, more flexibility, and real-time problem solving instead of a change-request queue.
- 04
Outcome focus
Success is measured in pilots launched and teams operating, not participants satisfied or introductions made. ROI is the north star.
What we do
- 01
Accelerator & incubator
A leading B2B tech startup accelerator with a community of 10,000+ tech startups globally over the last ten years. Startups are brought to our own enterprise customers to accelerate time to market, and co-create on SAP BTP, ABB SynerLeap and AWS Marketplace.
- 02
India GTM & GCC
Go-to-market and end-to-end India operations for global technology companies — Nano-GCC setup, Build-Operate-Transfer, or dedicated offshore teams. Talent, workspace, compliance and operations, run as one service.
- 03
AI Innovation as a Service
Structured, enterprise-grade programmes that help large organisations discover, build and test AI innovation fast — internal hackathons, external hackathons and innovation scouting, ending in live pilots.
- 04
Impact D2C Roadshow
India’s largest D2C movement: a twelve-city circuit that takes capital, connections and community to founders in tier-2 cities instead of waiting for them to come to a metro.
How value is realised
A formidable innovation ecosystem.

Startup GTM & systems integration
Bringing startups to I2I’s own enterprise customers to accelerate time to market, co-creating solutions on SAP BTP, ABB SynerLeap and AWS Marketplace.
