Launched in 2018, the NUS Graduate Research Innovation Programme (NUS GRIP) stands as the flagship innovation programme of NUS Enterprise. Leveraging our extensive experience in deep technology, GRIP offers comprehensive guidance to NUS postgraduate students and researchers, empowering them to become deep tech entrepreneurs and translate the university’s world-class research into their own deep technology start-ups.

Through a year-long journey, participating teams receive step-by-step support in developing entrepreneurial skills and gaining valuable experience. This is facilitated through workshops, mentorships, industry connections, and incubation support. The ultimate goal is to enable the teams to create commercially viable and investible deep tech start-ups, thereby contributing to a thriving ecosystem of deep tech startups in Singapore.

Upon successful completion of the programme, start-ups demonstrating significant commercial potential have the opportunity to receive NUS investment of up to $100,000 to accelerate their growth. To learn more about the NUS Graduate Research Innovation Programme, please visit nus.edu.sg/grip.
