What is Honda Innovation Challenge 2.0?
A startup co-innovation program by Honda in partnership with T-Hub, where selected startups work directly with Honda's teams to build and pilot next-generation digital customer experiences across safety, loyalty, and customer experience.
What do selected startups receive?
A share of a ₹1.6 Crore prize pool, up to ₹40 Lakh per startup as a co-development grant, plus direct technical mentorship from Honda, business mentorship and network, partnership, and investment access from T-Hub, real customer validation, and a pilot pathway with Honda after the PoC phase.
Is there a pilot opportunity after the program?
Yes. The strongest solutions earn a structured pathway to pilot with Honda after the proof-of-concept phase, a real route from prototype toward production.
Is there a cost to participate?
No. There is no program fee, and no equity is taken to participate.
Who can apply?
Startups with a working product ready for real-world validation. Early customer traction is preferred but not mandatory.
My solution fits more than one focus area. Can I apply?
Yes. You can indicate multiple relevant focus areas within a single application.
Who owns the IP?
Your startup retains ownership of its intellectual property. Specific terms for any co-developed work are agreed transparently before the build phase begins.
