T-Hub, a startup incubator, in collaboration with Atal Innovation Mission (AIM) has announced the launch of the 5th cohort of AIC T-Hub Healthcare Program. The program has selected 20 promising startups from a competitive pool of over 209 applications.
The three-month hybrid program is designed to accelerate innovation in MedTech, digital health, and healthcare accessibility by providing startups with mentorship, market access, investor engagement, and regulatory guidance.
Among the selected startups are Artyem Care, Bioscafil, Chqup, Cloud Palliative Care, Dag2IL, Epirelief, Dr. DICOM (GLOCAL DIGITAL), Kashi Medicos, Nahush Pharma, Oui Medical, Planytics, Reyansh Technologies, Sigma Mozak, Signel Biomedical, Skinska, Tap Health, thebabyland, TurocratesAI, 365Veda, and Warkas. These startups were selected based on their proof-of-concept readiness, technological innovation, regulatory compliance preparedness, market potential, and the strength of their founding teams.
Throughout the program, they will benefit from one-on-one mentorship with industry veterans, strategic introductions to hospitals and corporates, and exclusive investor networking opportunities to help secure funding and business collaborations.
Through this program, startups will gain access to leading hospitals and healthcare institutions for real-world validation and pilot studies, ensuring their solutions are market-ready and clinically viable. They will also receive expert guidance on navigating domestic and international healthcare regulations, which is critical for scaling in a highly regulated industry.
Additionally, by engaging with venture capitalists, healthcare firms, and policymakers, startups will have opportunities to forge strategic partnerships and secure funding. Market access will be a key focus, with curated introductions to hospitals, corporates, and healthcare organizations that can facilitate the growth and adoption of innovative solutions.
Rajesh Adla, CEO of AIC T-Hub Foundation, said, “At AIC T-Hub, we are committed to driving healthcare innovation by equipping startups with the resources they need to scale and succeed. The 5th cohort of our Healthcare Program is a testament to our ongoing efforts to build a thriving healthcare ecosystem in India. By fostering innovation, we aim to improve healthcare accessibility, affordability, and efficiency.”
Since its inception, AIC T-Hub has successfully supported 53 healthcare startups across four previous cohorts in MedTech, digital health, and healthcare accessibility. These startups have collectively raised over ₹60.46 crore in funding from investors and grants, facilitated more than 180 market access opportunities with hospitals, corporates, and healthcare institutions, and participated in global healthcare conferences that have significantly boosted their visibility and industry connections.
Looking ahead, AIC T-Hub is strengthening clinical validation opportunities through collaborations with hospitals, research labs, and pharmaceutical companies. The program also aims to onboard one or two international startups to introduce them to India’s healthcare ecosystem, fostering cross-border innovation. Additionally, AIC T-Hub is building a robust network of doctors, hospitals, and sector-focused investors to support startup success.
