The program will provide hands-on assistance to start-ups to improve their products and solutions, mentoring start-ups in the emerging and exciting areas of Industry4.0, IIoT, Gaming & Entertainment, Social Impact, among others.
Start-ups with interesting ideas can apply for the Deep Camp program starting 4 August. Application forms for the same are available on the Affine website. The selection process will include a review of applications by an esteemed panel, followed by a boot camp and an interview round. Selected start-ups will have the opportunity to network and learn from some of the most renowned global names in the technology industry, earn cloud credits from Affine’s partner- AWS, and co-sell opportunities with Azure.
“Our demonstrated expertise in deep tech has been instrumental in AI-led transformations of several Fortune-500 enterprises,” says Affine co-founder and chief solutions architect Vineet Kumar. “Deep Camp will be the first deep tech accelerator to provide actual hands-on help up to 100 hours of AI model training, large scale engineering/cloud and deep domain knowledge through its multiple Centers of Excellence. This will help the selected start-ups vastly improve their solutions.”
