Assistance to Enroll and Participate in Acceleration Program (Gujarat Startup Scheme)

Funds Gujarat startups up to ₹3 lakh to join a recognized acceleration program.

A recommended startup registers on the Startup Gujarat portal and applies with details of the acceleration program's fees; approved startups are reimbursed the program's participation fees up to ₹3,00,000, though travel and accommodation costs are excluded, and a feedback report is due within a month of attending. The State Level Empowered Committee gives final approval after the Nodal Institution

The component supports startups of any sector that want to enroll in a national or internationally recognized acceleration program. It targets founders seeking structured mentorship and growth resources rather than product-development funding.
