NITI Aayog’s Frontier Tech Repository

NITI Aayog’s Frontier Tech Repository is a curated platform of proven, impact-driven technology use cases that are already solving real problems across the nation. Designed as a living and evolving knowledge commons that captures how frontier technologies—applied with purpose—are transforming lives and livelihoods at scale.

What sets the Repository apart is its emphasis on impact, not just innovation. At launch, the Repository will feature 200 documented stories of frontier technologies addressing grassroots challenges, supported by measurable impact data. Each story featured will highlight:

• The problem addressed;

• The technology and delivery model used, and the partners involved;

• The measurable outcome and impact delivered; and

• The pathway for replication and scale across States and sectors.

By weaving these stories through immersive, human-centred narratives, the Repository will make technology accessible and relatable—showcasing how States, startups, and institutions are deploying solutions not for technology’s sake, but to meet pressing social, economic, and environmental needs.

The Repository is being developed in partnership with The Better India, and will grow as a community-driven platform. We actively encourage States, startups, and innovators to contribute their tech-for-impact stories, ensuring the Repository continues to expand, inspire, and enable collective learning. The platform will host challenges and awards to encourage wider adoption.

The Repository will serve as a national bridge between challenges and solutions—democratizing awareness, enabling cross-learning, and promoting adoption of public-purpose innovation. In doing so, it will accelerate India’s journey toward inclusive, resilient, and sustainable development, while positioning the country as a global hub of tech-for-impact innovation.
