Entrepreneur IN RESIDENCE

Bio-CPS Entrepreneur-In-Residence (Bio-CPS EIR) is an umbrella program under the entrepreneurship development vertical of BITS BioCyTiH Foundation to encourage and support young innovators and budding entrepreneurs in the interdisciplinary area of Bio-CPS.

Bio-CPS EIR is a six-months’ long intense program of rigorous training, handholding and nurturing Bio-CPS focused innovators through their early-stage entrepreneurial journey.

The program facilitates the fellows with monthly fellowship of Rs. 50,000/- for the duration of six months to partially de-risk their entrepreneurial journey and provides crucial offerings for the early-stage start-ups.
