National Startup Awards 2023 Results - Independent Trailblazer Award

Independent Trailblazer Award

The Independent Trailblazer award category honors startups that have been self-funded or bootstrapped from the beginning, relying solely on founders' resources and business-generated revenue without seeking external investment or venture capital. Bootstrapping requires creative cost-cutting, personal financing, and innovative short-term solutions, fostering resourcefulness, innovation, and profitability focus.

In India's evolving entrepreneurial landscape, an increasing number of bootstrapped businesses indicate a shift towards independent strategies, demonstrating a change in entrepreneurs' mindset. These startups, driven by a desire to address societal problems, challenge norms, and build lasting businesses without external funding, serve as inspiring role models, fostering confidence and an entrepreneurial spirit in aspiring business owners.

Nanosafe Solutions Private Limited is a biotechnology company that develops active copper technology (ACT) with antibacterial properties that works with polymers and textiles. ACT is a 4-in-1 patented technology that has been shown to be >99.99% efficient against bacteria, viruses, fungi, and algae. It is derived from old science of copper. The active copper cation produced from ACT-treated materials interacts with bacteria proteins to denaturize them quickly, which is the source of the antimicrobial effect. Since copper, the active ingredient in ACT, is a micronutrient rather than silver or drug-based antimicrobial technology, it is far safer for use in food, drink, and wearables. Ten ACT formulations are available for various textile and polymer kinds. As recipients of numerous honours, such as the esteemed DST 2022 National Tech Excellence Award, BIRAC BIG, and DST NIDHI initiatives, our goal is to lead the world in antimicrobial technology.throughout the entire chain.

Product

The Indian Patent Office has awarded Aum Paper Products a patent for a paper-based corrugated envelope concept. This innovation serves as a sustainable and eco-friendly bubble mailer substitute. The concepts of Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, and Recover inform its design.

The products offered are as follows:

E-commerce Mailer Bags- The superior paper used to make these mailer bags guarantees that the 16-point supply chain will be maintained. The top fold and the bags' serrated cutting to guarantee no sharp edges are two further important safety features. We can choose to make them with a second adhesive strip to allow returning items to be packaged in the same container as well as with tear tape for simple bag opening. For the same reason, we may also apply a water-resistant coating on top.
Tamper-Proof Food Delivery & Grocery Bag- Our carefully crafted tamper-proof food and shopping bags feature a handle that is cut below the bag's sealing. This keeps the food fresher and prevents it from getting soggy by allowing the hot steam to escape. This keeps the groceries in the bags fresh by allowing them to air out. To guarantee that nothing gets in the way of you enjoying your food, we also provide a perforation line!
Gift Carry Bags- You can gift-wrap gifts using our selection of personalized carry bags, which will save you time, effort, and paper. They are very well-liked by retail establishments since they relieve customers from lengthy lines for gift wrapping and are stylish and simple to use!
Carry Bags- These bags are a modern take on the classic paper bag! They are flatter and open up according to need, unlike typical bags, which open up to form a box. This makes them perfect for storing. These totes can be produced with D-cut, flat, twisted, or bespoke lace handles.
Performance-Based Paper Rolls- Additionally, we can create paper rolls to order, printing them simply or adding specialty coatings to make them grease- or water-resistant, among other qualities. For additional information, please contact us!
