JITO Incubation and Innovation Foundation (JIIF) has announced plans to invest Rs 80–100 crore in early-stage startups over the next 12 to 18 months, with a target of supporting 20–25 startups annually.
The announcement, published in April 2026, outlines a broad push by JIIF to expand its footprint in the startup ecosystem. As part of that effort, the foundation has also invested in Atomic Capital, a move aimed at broadening its investment opportunities.
JIIF is additionally planning a new accelerator program focused on the Asia-Pacific region. The initiative will concentrate on sectors including artificial intelligence, fintech, and climate.
The planned deployment of capital across a defined cohort of startups each year suggests JIIF is positioning itself as a consistent source of early-stage funding, which may provide more predictable support for founders in the targeted sectors.
