Founding Institution Programme

Five institutions. Three-year locked pricing. First access to every company that has already committed.

Companies have already committed internships, hackathons and guest lecture sessions — before a single institution was onboarded. Your students get first access to all of it.

What is already waiting

The demand is committed before you onboard a single student.

Most platforms ask an institution to take it on faith that opportunities will appear. Udgam does not. Companies across four sectors have signed commitments that activate the day the platform opens — and Founding Institutions get first call on all of them.

The usual experience

You onboard faculty and students, and then wait. Six months later the opportunity feed is thin, students stop opening the app, and the institution quietly concludes the platform doesn’t work.

What you get here

A live opportunity feed from day one, because the commitments were secured first. We will bring the named list to the first meeting, filtered to your streams and your city, before we ask you for anything.

employer partnership tiers, from entry-level hiring through to multi-year strategic partnership

Internships

committed annually across the founding corporate cohort, in paid, structured placements

Hackathons

committed each year, with judged submissions that count toward your students' assessment

Guest lectures

committed each year, mapped by your own faculty to live course outcomes

Exact volumes, named companies and sector mix are shared under the MoU conversation — filtered to what is relevant to your programmes.

The founding offer

What a Founding Institution gets that no later institution can.

Pricing locked for three years

Founding rate, materially below the standard entry price and fixed for the full three-year term regardless of what happens to list pricing. We confirm the figure on the first call.

Co-design access

Your IQAC coordinator and TPO sit in the product review cycle. What Udgam builds in the first two years is shaped by the five founding institutions.

Priority corporate access

Your students see every signed partner’s opportunities before any other institution’s students do. That is the whole point of being early.

90-day framework setup

Udgam builds your CO framework across the pilot programme within 90 days, with a dedicated implementation lead. Not a support ticket queue.

National launch visibility

Named as a Founding Institution Partner in the national launch press release and across platform communications.

An exit clause that is actually usable

Either party can exit with 90 days’ notice after Year 1. Full data export at any time, available for two years after cancellation.
