Villgro Innovations Foundation Private Limited

Villgro provides end-to-end intensive business support to early-stage social enterprises. Its unique incubation methodology starts right from scouting for mission-aligned enterprises, incubating them and finally exiting. The incubation process comprises of five focal interventions — seed investing, diagnostic and solutioning panels that set strategy and milestones every 90 days, mentoring that helps the entrepreneur execute the strategy, targeted technical assistance to improve compliances, and processes, partnerships and networks that lead to a market push.

Contributions

  • Villgro has developed a comprehensive virtual knowledge tool with all their insights and processes. This playbook has been leveraged by nearly 200 stakeholders interested in establishing incubators.
  • Their platform VITALS (Villgro Information Tracking and Learning System) has the potential to transform the way in which incubators function by making them data and evidence-driven, and creating an exhaustive repository of experts, best practices and lessons learned.
  • Villgro is also the first incubator approved by BIRAC with a hospital partnership (MSMF) to accelerate early-stage medical device innovation.
