KGAP+ (Keihanna Global Acceleration Program Plus) will hold a selection pitch webinar for Batch 7 in collaboration with NASSCOM (National Association of Software and Services Companies) in India.
KGAP+ is a startup support program for promising startups from Japan and abroad. Startups pursue collaboration with large Japanese enterprises as well as overseas expansion. So far, 79 startups from 10 countries have participated in the Batch 1 to 6, and 80% of the startups have been able to implement PoC or enter into collaborative discussions with the program’s support.
Deep-tech startups with advanced and innovative technologies have been participating from India, an IT powerhouse. At this event, NASSCOM will introduce their “Deep-tech Club 2.0”, and the startups aiming to qualify will make passionate pitches.
- In March 2021, NASSCOM, ATR, and XBorder Innovations signed a MOU to enhance the global innovation ecosystem through collaboration, such as ATR and XBI supporting open innovation between Indian startups participating in NASSCOM’s DeepTech Club 2.0 and Japanese companies.
