Early-stage investors play a pivotal role that extends beyond providing capital. They act as mentors, offering invaluable guidance and support to young startup founders who often lack extensive experience. By sharing their expertise and insights, investors help entrepreneurs navigate the complexities of building a business, from strategic decision-making to operational challenges. This mentorship is crucial in helping startups avoid common pitfalls and accelerate their growth. Moreover, the relationship between early-stage investors and startup founders is symbiotic. Investors who actively mentor their portfolio companies contribute to the success of these startups and enhance their investment outcomes. By fostering a supportive environment, they help create a more resilient and innovative startup ecosystem, where young entrepreneurs can thrive and realise their vision. #StartupMentorship #EarlyStageInvestors #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #BusinessGrowth #StartupEcosystem #Investment

🌟 A Major Milestone for Chimertech! 🌟 We are excited to announce that Vety and Livestock Innovation and Incubation Foundation (VLIIF), a Section 8 company of Guru Angad Dev Veterinary and Animal Sciences University (GADVASU), has taken a significant step forward by signing incubation agreements with seven emerging startups. This marks a pivotal moment in advancing veterinary and livestock sciences through inclusive technology. Under the leadership of Dr. Inderjeet Singh, Vice Chancellor of GADVASU, these startups—including Chimertech Pvt. Ltd.—have officially joined the VLIIF incubation program. One of the key projects, Control of Mastitis in Punjab State - A Pilot Project (NPV-7), reflects VLIIF’s commitment to driving innovation within the livestock and dairy sectors. Our product, Quadmastest, will be an essential tool in this pilot, aimed at addressing mastitis in dairy herds. We are proud to be part of this journey toward catalyzing progress in veterinary science and the livestock industry. #VeterinaryInnovation #LivestockTechnology #Startups #Incubation #Mentorship #GADVASU #VLIIF #DairySector #MastitisControl #AgricultureInnovation

In a significant step, the newly operationalised Anusandhan National Research Foundation #ANRF, announces two crucial initiatives—The Prime Minister’s Early Career Research Grant #PMECRG and the Mission for Advancement in High-Impact Areas -Electric Vehicle #MAHAEV Mission. The #PMECRG is a great opportunity for early career researchers to join the country’s transformative journey and contribute to the advancement of India’s scientific excellence and innovation. The #MAHAEV Mission designed for achieving strategic autonomy in Electric Vehicle (EV) components particularly Battery Cells, Power Electronics, Machines, and Drives (PEMD) and Charging Infrastructure brings great hope for the scientists, engineers and innovators working in EV area. I invite researchers to apply! Both the initiatives can play a transformative role in bridging the gap between academic research and industrial application, one of the key goals of #ANRF. While #PMECRG would boost the creativity, innovation, and excellence of early career researchers and accelerate India's research-driven aspirations, the #MAHAEV Mission would support industry-aligned translational research in Electric Vehicles, an area of national priority. The operationalisation of the #ANRF was initiated with the First Meeting of the Governing Board (GB) on September 10, 2024, which was chaired by the Hon’ble Prime Minister as the President of the Governing Board (GB). This is just the first step towards ANRF’s mandate to provide a high-level strategic direction for research, innovation, and entrepreneurship to impactfully supplement our march towards #AatmanirbharBharat. More programs will be launched in coming months.
