We are glad to be incubated at CIIC, as CIIC has mentored, guided and helped us receive government Grant's to pilot our product. CIIC is also serving as the best support to test, demonstrate and implement new technologies we have developed in recent days. We see CIIC as one of our best facilitators.

Mr. Jayaprakash Founder and CEO

Mirrar Innovation Technologies Pvt Ltd
During our initial days, when we were looking to shift our office from Madurai to some other place, we got introduced to CIIC through our mentor and that's how our association with CIIC started. CIIC has provided us with office space - we're even expanding now, helped in IVP vouchers and other grants. CIIC is also instrumental in pushing our solutions for mushroom cultivation, the tremendous response which we are seeing now. One of the biggest things is that through CIIC we got introduced to our investors and because of that, private investors and networks like Keiretsu Forum have invested in our company. We would like to thank CIIC for the support extended and would like to have a long standing relationship.

Mr. Dinesh Co-Founder,

Impensus Electronics Pvt. Ltd.
We got all help from CIIC right from our idea validation stage and got transformed into a startup. The workspace, mentorship, investor connections and above all the smart internship students were very important and helpful for us. All Startup incentives relevant to our startup, Govt grants, and hundreds of free premium technology costing thousands of dollars like AWS, Azure, Digital Ocean, Zoho were recommended and made available for us at no cost. The entire CIICs team's swift and smart action updati\ed and availed facilities immediately when it got announced. It makes a lot of difference for startups like us and gives the global competitive advantage. After all, we survived with CIIC business network, overseas leads, exhibitions and promotional activities.

Mr. SURLI KANNAN,

Founder Iviewsense Pvt. Ltd.
It’s been a great journey here at Crescent Innovation and Incubation Council since I stepped in looking for a working space. But since then we have been able to achieve a few milestones which particularly happened with the support of CIIC. To name a few we had been able to get a seed grant from EDII under the Voucher B category, through CIIC’s enormous network we had been able to grab in some potential customers who have been helping us out in doing our field trials. The ecosystem here has been very overwhelming with testbeds being provided for most startups in-house. CIIC has been able to grow at such a fast pace and with all the necessary infra and support for their startups within a short span of 2 years and I feel there are very few incubation centers out there who have been able to onboard such a huge chunk of startups and partnerships.
