Over the past 11 batches, JioGenNext has mentored 136 startups and the program’s alumni includes fast-growing startups like Headspin,
, , Clinikk, , BharatAgri and Utter among others.“Our entire selection process for this cohort has been remote. For the first time we have a largely deep-tech cohort building strong IP and tackling some of the biggest problems faced by global customers. The endeavour will be to help these startups successfully establish in the Indian market and further explore global markets.
"On the back of our previous Remote Demo Day success, we are doing a fully remote cohort this time. Being remote gives us the flexibility to have a wider outreach within the RIL/Jio ecosystem, industry experts, customers and investors,” explained Amey Mashelkar, Head, JioGenNext.
