An innovation lab was launched by Delhivery Private Limited, a logistics unicorn, and supply chain company in India, in partnership with Mumbai-based Startup Réseau, a specialized operator of industry-backed accelerator programs, in a move that reiterates their commitment to developing differentiated technology solutions. Delhivery’s core business differentiator has been its consistent focus on integrating Technology in a largely traditional sector like Logistics. The innovation lab is an extension of the company’s overall objective of developing smart solutions for businesses and the sector at large.
It aims to help Indian entrepreneurs and the startup community to initiate smart solutions in logistics and supply chains and strike into the immense opportunities offered by digital technology.
Delhivery Innovation Labs is now accepting applications for its inaugural cohort, which will go live in November 2021. The Objective of Delhivery Innovation Labs is to enable technology partnerships, strategic engagements, and proof-of-concept development on pre-defined use cases with emerging tech startups. Through this initiative, the company is aiming to collaborate with enterprising startups working on developing Machine Learning, Machine Vision, AI, and IoT solutions for pre-defined business cases.
Kapil Bharati, Co-founder, and CTO, Delhivery, said, “The scale and growth of Delhivery have been achieved through investments in infrastructure, network engineering, and an extensive network of partners, orchestrated by our in-house logistics platform. We work with multiple partners from startups to tech companies to leverage their products and prototypes to continuously improve our systems. This accelerator programme is our attempt to make this process structured and open to a large community of tech entrepreneurs.”
Ajay Ramasubramaniam, Founder and CEO, Startup Réseau, said, “Delhivery is built on the backbone of technology, and we feel that this is a great opportunity for emerging tech startups to collaborate. We have identified key business areas where we are looking for solutions that are pilot-ready. In addition to operating a structured POC-led accelerator programme, we also aim to discover interesting tech solutions for the logistics and supply chain industry. We are excited about this partnership and look forward to enabling some great success stories.”
