We help you identify, train, and deliver high-quality entrepreneurial teams, so your incubator can focus on scaling, not screening.
Go from student to founder, launch your startup with confidence.
Moonpreneur's Pre-Incubation Program for Incubation Centers.
Across the globe, 7,000+ incubators seek promising ideas, but identifying teams or startups ready for the next step is a challenge. Pre-incubation Program helps your institute bridge that gap by systematically grooming students so their ideas are structured, validated, and incubation-ready.
Globally, Moonpreneur has empowered 2,000+ students and incubated 40+ startups, equipping young entrepreneurs with the skills, networks, and confidence to succeed in an AI-transformed world.
Partnering with leading institutions across continents to empower the next generation of entrepreneurs.
There are now over 7,000+ startup incubators worldwide, yet top programs often accept only around 1–5% of applicants, making it extremely hard to identify the next Tesla, SpaceX, Gemini, or ChatGPT among thousands of early-stage ideas.
In India, less than one in three seed-funded startups secure a Series A round, with some studies putting the graduation rate closer to 25%, showing how few early ideas are validated strongly enough for incubators and investors to confidently back them.
In the US, leading research universities collectively generate hundreds of spinouts each year, yet only a minority attract significant follow-on funding, highlighting how difficult it is for incubators to pick and nurture the handful that can become global breakout companies.
We are not another incubation centre; we are your pre‑incubation partner.
Align with your innovation and NEP‑aligned entrepreneurship goals by offering a structured, outcomes‑driven pre‑incubation track.
Help students move from raw ideas to clear problem statements, validated solutions, basic financials, and compelling pitch decks that meet real incubator expectations.
Increase the number and quality of student startup applications that can realistically compete for top incubation centres across the globe.
Leverage Moonpreneur's experience of working with leading institutes and startup ecosystems (IITs, IIMs, AICs, and other recognized hubs).
AI is expected to contribute more than 15.7 trillion USD to the global economy and create up to 133-170 million new roles by 2030, while also automating many existing jobs.
Surveys show that over 80% of companies expect AI and information-processing technologies to significantly transform their business by 2030 and are actively seeking talent that blends technical skills with creativity, resilience, and entrepreneurial thinking.
Preparing students only for traditional placement is no longer enough; institutes that build entrepreneurial, AI-aware graduates will be better aligned with how the global economy and startup ecosystems are evolving.
Globally, we have empowered 2,000+ students and incubated 40+ startups—equipping young entrepreneurs with the skills, networks, and confidence to succeed in an AI-transformed world.
