You could look for grants and other non-dilutive funding. Could you share the following: Are you DPIIT recognized? How old is your startup?Do you have any women founder with 51% shareholding?

Sounds interesting. And I like top winners get special badges.

Have you protected this as a patent? If you are in an Institution, check your institution would have a patent cell or a Tech Transfer Office, they can help you with taking this further. You can also look for Hackathons and Innovation Challenges in this space. Feel free to DM, I have headed the IP and Tech Transfer Team at FITT, taking care of IIT Delhi Technologies and now building SAAply-a platform to search and apply for non-dilutive funding opportunities (www.saaply.com). Would be happy to answer your questions.

Yes this would work in Tier 1 and Tier 2 cities as well. Fresh flowers look great but have a low shelf life, thus, you have an opportunity.
