IndiaAI Startups Global — International Acceleration Program (2026, 2nd Cohort)
Funds Indian AI startups with prize money for a Paris-based European market accelerator.
IndiaAI Mission runs this as a four-month program built with Station F, the world's largest startup campus, and HEC Paris, one of Europe's leading business schools.

The program is open to India-based AI startups that want to expand into the European market, with a focus on France. It looks for founders ready to use investor access, mentorship, and go-to-market support rather than early-stage research funding.
