AerialGrid India incubated at CIIE IIT (ISM) Dhanbad

AerialGrid India is now officially incubated at CIIE IIT (ISM) Dhanbad Foundation — placing us inside one of India's most respected deep-tech ecosystems at a defining moment for the country's drone industry.

India's drone market is on track to more than double from USD 1.3B (2025) to USD 2.7B (2034), backed by a clear self-reliance agenda — drone import restrictions, a unified 5% GST, and ~90% of airspace opened as green zones.

Through CIIE, AerialGrid gains:

• Mentorship from IIT (ISM) faculty and deep-tech founders

• Access to Startup India grants and seed funding

• Product validation in IIT (ISM) labs and with research partners

• Visibility at government expos and defence showcases

• IP, legal and corporate-secretarial support

• Direct lines to investors and strategic customers

• The "Incubated by IIT (ISM) Dhanbad" trust signal

Our One Command Platform — SkyGrid — was built precisely for the challenge India is now scaling into: making every drone in the sky visible, identifiable and controllable.

Thank you to the CIIE IIT (ISM) Dhanbad team and the Startup India ecosystem. Let's build.
