I-STEM: Connecting Startups to India's R&D Infrastructure

I-STEM (Indian Science Technology and Engineering facilities Map) is a national platform that connects users with research and testing infrastructure across India—helping innovators discover, access and utilise scientific facilities beyond their own organisations.

Capital-Efficient R&D

Lower costs. Access advanced capabilities.

Specialised equipment and technical services without capital investment. Digital MoUs enable preferential or subsidised rates where agreed.

Accelerated Product Development

Broader reach. Better-fit capabilities.

Discover and compare facilities nationwide for testing, prototyping and validation. Access specialised expertise and identify collaboration opportunities.

Infrastructure Monetisation

Higher utilisation. Stronger asset economics.

Reach startups nationwide, optimise equipment utilisation and operating costs, and enable service-cost recovery or additional revenue, where applicable.

For Startups

Discover. Access. Innovate.

Have an R&D, testing, prototyping or validation requirement?

Startups can use I-STEM to discover advanced scientific equipment and research facilities available across India and access capabilities that may not be available within their own organisation.
