<h1>Tech incubator wraps 30-day robotics startup acceleration with funding, mentorship, and global partnerships</h1> A technology incubator concluded its inaugural 30-day prototype acceleration program aimed at supporting early-stage robotics startups in overcoming development challenges. The program selected nine startups from over 100 applicants across multiple regions, providing mentorship, prototyping resources, regulatory consultations, and milestone tracking to advance innovations such as firefighting drones and autonomous inspection robots. Participants received financial support for prototyping, with opportunities for further funding based on performance. The initiative included collaboration with academic institutions, industry partners, and government agencies to foster commercialization and ecosystem development. The incubator also announced a strategic partnership with an international accelerator to enhance support for startups focused on energy transition and other priority sectors. The program is planned as a recurring effort to promote deep tech entrepreneurship, particularly in robotics and related fields, with an emphasis on inclusive growth across diverse geographic areas.
