Innovations & Startups
Accelerating sustainable development pathways in cities by supporting enterprises that are solving some of the biggest problems of our time.
Municipalities in India are resource-strapped, they are significantly behind on service provisions and climate change risks continue to exacerbate. Nurturing urban innovations is one way to overcome time and resource constraints. Leveraging novel processes, products and practices, to tackle resource and climate-related challenges, can enable swift and sustainable growth that results in better public service provisioning.

ACCELERATING INNOVATIONS : STATION ACCESS AND MOBILITY PROGRAM (STAMP)
"WRI India Ross Center’s STAMP Accelerator (2017) helped Bounce develop their use-case for two-wheeler rentals for last-mile connectivity and launch a pilot in Bengaluru. This exposure led to a tender from Bengaluru Metro Rail Corporation to run last-mile operations from 37 metro stations across the city. As of early 2020, Bounce has raised a total of $252.7M in funding over 8 rounds."
