NEIC Cohort 2 | NUTECH Entrepreneur and Incubation Centre Selects 10 Startups 2026

Published on

NUTECH Entrepreneur and Incubation Centre has announced the selection of 10 startups for its second cohort, marking the next phase of the centre’s efforts to nurture early-stage ventures emerging from within and around the National University of Technology ecosystem in Islamabad. The selected startups, which represent a varied cross-section of sectors and problem statements, are Hand2Voice, Viylsa, Amanamna, Tech Shiners, Agenzo, E-Medigo, Bovine Sense, Edvay, HandyHub, and Auto Coil Machine. The range of ventures points to a cohort that spans health technology, agricultural innovation, education, services, and industrial solutions — reflecting the breadth of entrepreneurial thinking being cultivated within the programme.

The announcement marks a continuation of NUTECH Entrepreneur and Incubation Centre’s structured approach to building a startup pipeline from within an academic institution, a model that has gained considerable traction across Pakistan in recent years as universities increasingly recognise the role they can play in converting student and faculty talent into commercially viable ventures.

Each of the selected startups will now enter the incubation programme, where they will receive mentorship, access to the centre’s network of advisors and industry connections, and the institutional support needed to refine their business models and prepare for the next stages of growth. For many of these founding teams, the incubation period represents the first opportunity to work on their ventures in a structured, resource-backed environment outside of the classroom. With its second cohort now underway, NUTECH Entrepreneur and Incubation Centre continues to build on the foundation laid by its inaugural batch, steadily expanding its contribution to Pakistan’s broader startup ecosystem as one of the newer but increasingly active incubation centres operating in the capital.
