NVIDIA Inception

NVIDIA Inception is a no-equity, rolling programme for AI, data-science and deep-learning startups. Members receive hardware and cloud GPU discounts, preferred pricing, Deep Learning Institute training, go-to-market support and connections to VCs, scaling benefits as the startup matures. Inception is free to join and carries no equity requirement, but benefits scale across membership tiers, with top-tier Premier members getting a dedicated NVIDIA relationship manager, priority access to Premier-only events and elevated marketing support. Baseline eligibility only requires at least one developer on the team, a working website, formal incorporation and being under ten years old — revenue is explicitly not required, which suits the programme's stated focus on healthtech, autonomous systems, robotics and enterprise AI startups in India.
