India's own Hardware Accelerator is now 15 Startups strong with the launch of Batch#2 at the Numa Accelerator's Startup Popup Event.

Revvx Founder, Avinash Kaushik, recounted his journey as a Bootstrapped Incubation Hub known as Co-Labs started way back in 2013 with startups like Native5 ( acquired by Myntra) and Hiree ( Acquired by Quikr) and the pivot to Hardware owing to the demand by Corporate Innovation Clients to scout innovative product startups. Satish Mugulavalli, the mentor at Co-Labs and former R&D Head of Verismo Networks, joined Revvx in November 2015. It has been an exciting journey so far working with great startups and Founders.

Revvx has a vision to build an Enabler for Mass Startup Innovation in India which is essentially to build a better and faster channel for Indian Hardware/IOT Product Startups to navigate Prototyping, Funding, Manufacturing, Go to Market and Retail. India imports 65% of its electronics. Exports are negligible. "In 5 years, we want to see Indian Smart Electronics Products powered by Revvx in Global households.We want to bring down the effort and time taken for a startup from Proof of concept to Retail/Sales " says Kaushik.

Intel, Accenture Innovation, TCS Innovation, Xerox Innovation, IESA and Amazon teams along with several Entrepreneurs and Batch#1 Alumni of Revvx were present to Congratulate the new Cohorts and to Mentor them through the program in exploring Co-Innovation, Co-Development, Go to Market and Distribution support that startups could piggyback in order to access wider markets.
