Inviting the brightest minds to create breakthrough
innovations for the 2&3-wheeler EV industry.
Do you want to be a part of the coming EV revolution in India? Would you like to bring the change through your innovation? To transform your dream idea into reality apply to EVangelise and we can support you by providing,
Globally there is an exponential growth in Electric Vehicles (EVs). India is the largest 2-wheeler market globally. However, for India to become the global leader in EV-2&3 wheelers, it is not enough to bank on the growth fueled by changing consumer preferences and environment-friendly regulations. Manufacturers will need to address many challenges for global leadership, around performance and efficiency.
We believe that a breakthrough innovation in 2&3-wheeler EV's at the sub-component level will provide manufacturers with a long-term competitive advantage. Components manufactured in India will be of global quality and performance standards. Above all they will have a price advantage by being available at the lowest cost. For you this throws up a host of opportunities and the prospect of being part of an exciting revolution.
Read MoreiCreate (International Centre for Entrepreneurship and Technology) is India's leading institution for transforming startups based on tech innovation into successful businesses. We are supported by the Govt. of Gujarat and the Govt. of India, and are located in a state-of-the-art 40-acre campus in Ahmedabad. Till date, we have supported over 389 innovations and 30+ patents with a 'high-touch, entrepreneur-first' model, connecting them with mentors, markets and money. Over the past few years, we have created a track-record of supporting projects in the EV space – from batteries and battery management systems, to charging systems, energy recovery systems, hybrid energy storage systems, autonomous driving assisting systems, and smart functionality systems. Our campus is equipped with design and simulation labs, rapid prototyping facilities, and core expertise in embedded systems. We have forged a deep relationship with the innovation ecosystem of Israel, the country known as the world's "Startup Nation".
The electric vehicle market is growing rapidly in India, especially the 2/3 wheeler segment. Platforms like EVangelise that brings various ecosystem partners together will help accelerate innovation in this field. MathWorks has been working with several organizations – OEMs, Tier-1 suppliers, Technology providers and startups in their electrification journeys. It is our pleasure to partner with iCreate and contribute to the success of EVangelise
EVangelise is a one-of-its kind Electric Vehicle Innovation Challenege and we are happy to collaborate with iCreate as their Knowledge Consultant. I urge all startups, research institutions, independant innovators and EV enthusiasts to come forward to participate and take benefit of this challenge. I am excited about a platform like EVangelise that can boost the EV revolution.
We convey our best wishes to iCreate team for conceptualizing the one-of-its-kind Electric Vehicle Innovation Challenge- EVangelise. We truly hope this partnership between iCreate & GCSRA will lead to pathbreaking innovations in EV space
The partnership with iCreate on the EVangelise Challenge aligns with Start-Up Nation Central’s goal to leverage state-of-the-art Israeli technology to overcome global sustainability challenges. Our objective for India and Israel’s sustainability ecosystem collaboration is for both countries to gain a global competitive advantage and obtain a leadership position in the electric vehicles industry. As a result, Indian companies will be able to create and own futuristic technological solutions instead of merely licensing and manufacturing them and Israel will be able to harness the power of Indian manufacturing and capture new markets.
TiE’s philosophy to work at the bottom of the pyramid is what leads us to work very closely with colleges, incubators and accelerators. Whether it is mentoring or investing or providing opportunities to network and have access to global markets, TiE India Angels (TIA) is the right program to work with for anyone trying to work with start-up's. This synergy and mutual support leads us to work with Evangelise and seek the right & filtered start-up's from this domain to be mentored and invested in.
I express my heartfelt appreciation to icreate for organizing and conducting an event of this stature which shall present a single platform to all relevant ecosystem partners and stakeholders to facilitate acceleration in the EV domain. The Government has made concerted efforts to boost, streamline and strengthen the startup ecosystem and MeitY has always offered necessary support to such activities to further channelize the ecosystem in consonance with the objectives of the Start up India Programme.
EVangelise by iCreate is an innovative program launched to promote EV ecosystem across India. This program will accelerate and enable the young innovative startups working in this domain. An event of this stature presents a unique opportunity and an able platform for people to bring forth their ideas and innovation and harness their creativity to create impactful solutions. MeitY Startup Hub (MSH) shall seek to support startups using its various programs and initiatives.
To make EV more affordable to common man, we need to bring more innovations to the market. EVangelise Innovation Challenge by iCreate addresses this need. The GAIN Accelerator is keen to provide the necessary efforts in this direction to bring impacts to society and the markets.
Altair has been at the forefront of providing technology solutions in the areas of physics based simulation and AI/ML to design the next generation of electric vehicles. Our partnership with iCreate will enable aspiring start-ups to build better vehicles in the E-Mobility space through Altair Simulation Driven design tools and solutions
How India chooses to develop will be crucial to the fight for ecological sustainability, and against climate change. The AGNIi Mission looks forward to collaborating with iCreate, to unleash Indian technological creativity in that fight.
India has a great opportunity to create an EV drive for a very large nonconsumption market. We firmly believe in EV growth and have invested in EV SaaS startups and will continue to back innovative companies in the space.
