📋 Tender Overview
The National Mission on Interdisciplinary Cyber-Physical Systems (NM-ICPS) has established 25 Technology Innovation Hubs (TIHs) across premier academic institutions, specializing in cutting-edge domains such as AI, ML, robotics, cybersecurity, autonomous navigation, quantum technologies etc.
One such TIH, namely, I-Hub Quantum Technology Foundation (QTF) at IISER Pune, is specifically focused on advancing Quantum Technologies. The hub promotes start-ups, translational research, and commercialization activities in the quantum technology space. To achieve this, the I-Hub QTF is supporting the below 14 start-ups spanning across different domains of Quantum Technologies, including Quantum Computing, Quantum Communications, Quantum Sensing, & Quantum Materials. These start-ups are being supported through comprehensive guidelines, developed under the National Quantum Mission (NQM) and officially adopted by I-Hub QTF.
Under the National Quantum Mission (NQM), four (4) thematic hubs (T-Hubs) are being established to further advance quantum technologies focusing on key quantum technology verticals, which include Quantum Computing, Quantum Communication, Quantum Sensing & Metrology and Quantum Materials & Devices. Entrepreneurship Development is one of the major mandates of these T-Hubs in their respective technology verticals.
