Scale Up Programme · Cohort 2 · India
A structured scale-up programme for established Indian organisations — NGOs, hubs, social enterprises, universities, and institutions — ready to build international revenue, win global grants, and operate across Europe, USA, and Africa.
You've built something real. You have impact, a team, and a track record. What you're missing is the bridge to international funding, EU partnerships, and the infrastructure to operate beyond India. That's exactly what this programme delivers.
"Scale up program done in 44 countries — now launching for established Indian organisations ready to go global."
— BøthOfUs Scale Up ProgrammeOne programme · Four global regions
The same proven framework that helped 9 Indian organisations in Cohort 1 is now available to a wider cohort — including India, MENA, Africa, and the USA.
This is not a one-off workshop or a generic accelerator. It's a hands-on, implementation-driven programme built around exactly what your organisation needs.
We audit your existing income streams and build additional, sustainable revenue sources — reducing single-stream dependency and creating resilience.

You are an established Indian organisationNGO, social enterprise, innovation hub, university unit, or institution — registered and operating.
You have an existing operating track recordYou have delivered programmes, generated income, or served clients/beneficiaries — you are not starting from zero.
You want to scale internationallyEU market access, global grants, and building a revenue model that doesn't depend solely on India.
Your team can commit over the coming monthsYou can dedicate time to workshops, implementation, and follow-through — this is not passive.
You work in an eligible sectorEducation, health, tech, environment, culture, social enterprise, civic innovation, urban development, or similar.
You are a very early-stage startupIf you have an idea but no operations, you're not ready for this programme yet. Come back when you have 12+ months of activity.
You're looking for a one-off workshopThis is not a one-day seminar. It requires time, engagement, and follow-through across multiple months.
Your team cannot commit any bandwidthIf your team is too stretched to engage, the programme won't deliver value. Timing matters.
You operate in excluded sectorsGambling, alcohol, weapons, and other sectors ineligible for EU and UN funding are excluded.
