Cancer doesn’t progress overnight. Yet in India, most cases are caught late.
Screening rates:
• 99% of women never tested for breast cancer
• 98% for cervical
• <2% of adults for oral
Affordable, early-detection tools can change outcomes.

From storage to delivery, last-mile gaps still limit India’s vaccine coverage. Innovations can boost reliability for hard-to-reach communities. @pfizer INDovation is inviting start-ups with affordable, scalable solutions. Apply now: socialalpha.org/pfizer-indov…
EV sales are surging, but charging & system solutions lag. Road transport drives ~87% of India’s transport emissions. We need innovations in charging, last-mile e-mobility, smart traffic & grid integration to #BuildFutureCities that move cleanly. Apply: socialalpha.org/techtonic-in…
By 2030, India’s water demand will be 2x supply, driven by cities.
Yet in urban India:
70% sewage untreated
40% piped water lost
Rainwater wasted as runoff
We need decentralised treatment, reuse & recharge solutions for #BuildingFutureCities.

By 2050, half of India's population is expected to live in cities. How these cities are designed, built, and governed today will determine whether we meet our net-zero target by 2070.
@SocialAlphaIN and @UofTIndia Foundation are launching the 2nd edition of Techtonic - Innovations in Sustainable Urban Transition, supporting innovators and entrepreneurs working on research-backed solutions for sustainable cities. The program seeks start-ups with solutions that enable Indian cities to adopt low-carbon pathways and facilitate sustainable transition across the built environment, with solutions that are Pilot Ready (TRL 6+) or Market Ready (TRL 7+).
The focus is on building resilience and reducing emissions within India's urban landscape through people-centered innovations.

India’s livestock sector is growing—but so is the waste it generates. We’re looking for startups using AI/ML or IoT to turn this waste into biogas, streamline processing, and create climate-friendly, income-generating solutions.
Apply now socialalpha.org/krishi-manga…
In agriculture, productivity isn’t enough—without efficient post-harvest systems, much is lost or undersold. We’re inviting start-ups that are building affordable, decentralised solutions for post-harvest storage, processing, and traceability.
