Benefits:

  • Forge connections with industry partners and customers.
  • Utilize an engineering prototyping lab and tools.
  • Access an IoT ecosystem that comprises government, academic, and industry collaborators.

Who Can Apply?

Since its inception, RIoT has backed numerous startups, some of which don’t fit the conventional IoT company mold. RAP welcomes innovative ideas from companies and entrepreneurs who recognize the potential of harnessing the data-driven economy.

There are three pathways into the program:

  1. Apply as an early-stage startup.
  2. Apply as a corporate team to use the program for fostering innovative new product offerings and networking in a creative external environment.
  3. Form a new team focused on industry-driven projects: RIoT assists in sourcing talent for sponsored innovation initiatives. Reach out to us if you’re keen on introducing a project into RAP or becoming part of a RAP team as a supplementary technical or business applicant.

RAP is open to startups, motivated entrepreneurs embarking on their next idea, or companies interested in launching a project independently of their corporate structure. Strong applications should demonstrate market demand, optimal timing, and early validation or traction.

Deadline: December 15, 2023.
