Co-creating future-ready tech-powered
solutions with the Indian start-up ecosystem
in the Supply Chain and Mobility space
Catapult 3.0 is here! We are excited for the third chapter of our program and are looking forward to an inspiring participation this year, and once again offering a unique world-class platform to support, enable, accelerate, and empower the Indian Logistics start-up community to Rise. The program catapults innovative solutions to market maturity, by refining PoCs to industry-ready solutions, and also provides access to the Mahindra leadership and its partner ecosystem.
Pivoting around technology and innovations in Supply Chain and Mobility, this program has a sharper focus in areas like Artificial Intelligence, Machine Learning, Blockchain, Internet of Things (IoT), Robotics & Automation, Virtual reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR), Drones, Big Data & Analytics, Low-Cost Hardware/ Connectivity/ GPS-Based Solutions, and E-Mobility Solutions.
Catapult encourages and follows an agile decision-making process, along with hands on mentoring, delivering an effective review cadence. This strong review cadence ensures timely and effective execution of the projects by the start-ups. Our program also supports pilot projects, with the help of business and technology champions, while also providing business anchors for daily problem-solving.
After a robust evaluation process, start-ups are shortlisted for the program. The cohort participants then collaborate with us on some real-world use-cases for a period of 3 months to develop market-ready solutions.
