SAMRIDH Impact Accelerator Program 2026: Results & Updates

The SAMRIDH Impact Accelerator Program 2026 backs early-to-mid-stage healthcare and climate-tech startups working on solutions with measurable real-world impact. The program is run by SAMRIDH Impact Solutions Pvt. Ltd. (SISPL), a market access and scale-up platform that works with government bodies, development partners, and private ecosystem players to take innovations from validation to scale.

Each selected startup can receive up to ₹1 crore in financial support, structured as grant, debt, or equity depending on the venture and stage. The instrument choice gives SISPL flexibility to back companies with the most appropriate capital — non-dilutive grants for proof points, debt for working-capital-heavy pilots, or equity for scaling-stage startups.

On the healthcare side, the program supports diagnostics and screening, digital health, medical devices, software as a medical device (SaMD), elderly and chronic care, critical health system challenges, and health systems strengthening. On the climate side, it supports electric mobility and EV ecosystems, clean energy and climate-resilient infrastructure, climate and environment solutions, and climate-smart agriculture.

Beyond capital, SISPL plugs in pilots with government and institutional partners, clinical and field validation, regulatory pathway and evidence-generation support, public and private channel integration for scale, and connections into investors, donors, and global markets. Applications close on 15 June 2026.
