Delhi Startup Yuva Festival 2026
A ₹1 lakh grant at the Delhi Startup Yuva Festival


In January 2026 the Government of Delhi's Department of Training and Technical Education, with TiE Delhi-NCR, held the Delhi Startup Yuva Festival, a "Campus to Market" festival for student founders, launched at Netaji Subhas University of Technology (NSUT) in Dwarka. More than 750 teams applied. One hundred were shortlisted, and each was awarded a ₹1 lakh grant. Quickgick was one of them.
Binit Gupta presented Quickgick at our stall to visitors who included Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta, Jayant Chaudhary, Union Minister of State for Skill Development and Entrepreneurship, and Ashish Sood, Delhi's Minister for Education.
The grant helped. The day helped more: hours of questions and feedback, from ministers and mentors to school students imagining companies of their own.
Our thanks to TiE Delhi-NCR and to the NSUT Incubation and Innovation Foundation.
