Funding Schemes

NUS Cleantech Incubator

 

The increase in demand for clean energy, clean water, and clean environment, is a global trend that can no longer be ignored. In order to support the needs of aspiring researchers, inventors and entrepreneurs who are venturing into these fields, NUS Enterprise Incubator (NEI) has set up a dedicated cleantech incubator that will provide mentorship, facilities and funding resources.

 

Mentors

One unique feature of our incubator is that companies incubated by us will benefit from the advice and support of a strong global network of experienced mentors and business angels who can help make your business a success.

 

New Funding Schemes

This grant is managed by the Singapore Economic Development Board (EDB), to support start-ups in the clean/ renewable energy, water and environment sectors. NUS Enterprise is the first integrated, cleantech incubator, which has been approved by EDB to evaluate and recommend projects for funding. The scheme provides a grant of up to 85% of qualifying costs for approved projects, capped at a maximum of S$500,000 per project over a period of 2 years.
