Thank you for showing your interest in attending the Launch of the Next BIG Idea Contest 2019 in your city!

 

The Next BIG Idea Contest is an annual feature of Zone Startups India's ecosystem development activities, that engages the pan-India startup ecosystem stakeholders including Startups, Incubators, Co-working spaces, Investors, Industry & other enablers through roadshows in 22 cities across India. The Next BIG Idea Contest seeks to discover India's most high-potential and innovative technology companies who are looking to leverage a soft-landing opportunity in Canada as gateway to North America. The selected startups get access to a 2-week all expense paid bespoke market access program which includes mentorship, industry connects, investor meetings and a great international exposure.

As an extension to the Next BIG Idea contest, the Aditya Jha Entrepreneur India Award was introduced in 2017 to recognize social entrepreneurs who have translated their innovative and impactful ideas into technology driven businesses. The winner receives a grant of INR Rs. 5 Lakhs along with the award during the Next BIG Idea contest winner announcement amidst a gathering of India’s leading entrepreneurs, industry and media.
