KPMG has initiated the third edition of ENRich 2023 startup search. The programme coincides with the company's annual flagship Energy and Natural Resources Conclave. 

The programme will be conducted via KPMG Illuminate, a systematic, end-to-end innovation management platform for early-stage start-ups and another one for mature start-ups. Applicants will undergo a preliminary screening process under each category and subsequently would be given the opportunity to present their solution to a panel of esteemed jury including KPMG partners and industry experts.

The winning startups identified in the search would be felicitated by KPMG’s guidance at the ENRich 2023 Innovation Summit, to be held in New Delhi on 10 October 2023 during ENRich 2023’s two-day event and will be entered into KPMG Matchi, a start-up database which connects innovative start-ups to potential clients. They can also have the opportunity to be involved with start-up-centred Open Innovation Platform or the Global Tech Innovation Challenge. In addition to this, there are possibilities for the winners to be featured at KPMG Innovation Kaleidoscope or KPMG Climate Change and Global Decarbonization Center. To provide further support to startups, an ‘Innovation Lounge’ will be set up at ENRich 2023 event to showcase innovative solutions aligned to the core event theme.
