Rural Milieu Accelerator

Rural Milieu Accelerator

Rural Entrepreneurship has a power to boost indigenous innovations, providing solutions not only to challenges of local community but also has potential to augment sustainable development, economic growth and employment avenues. Rural Enterprises are prime force to spur innovations and contribute to country’s economic pool as well as create opportunities for employment generation. However, rural enterprises and startups face lot of challenges in terms of lack of tech innovativeness, product quality, certification, branding, investment for growing operations and competition with bigger units. Further, there is lack of connect with R&D institutions/technology providers, which is one of the prime road blocker for rural startup & businesses.
