NUS Graduate Research Innovation Programme (GRIP)

NUS Graduate Research Innovation Programme (NUS GRIP) is a bespoke venture creation programme to enable PhDs and Research staff at NUS to start their own deep tech companies whilst completing their studies or working full time. Hosted by the NUS Industry Liaison Office, based on our extensive experience working with deep tech teams, we have designed a comprehensive suite of support, from experienced commercial champions, to prototyping partners, master engineers, market databases and up to $100,000 of funding to accelerate teams step by step to form their deep tech start ups with their own proprietary intellectual property within 12 months. Participants start with a rigorous 3 month Venture Creation Hothouse, and can pitch for funding from NUS for their start up thereafter. NUS GRIP can also bring solutions to companies' problem statements through our IDEAS Bank. We develop custom solutions by matching NUS talents with industry problems to meet their needs.
