Fellowships open a door for campus entrepreneurs
For a small but growing number of young professionals and college graduates, fellowships and grant programmes are emerging as an alternative entry point into India’s startup ecosystem. Recently, deeptech focussed venture capital firm Shastra VC launched its fellowship, SDEX, aimed at early-career founders, researchers, and PhD candidates.
Other than this, Emergent Ventures runs a fellowship programme of George Mason University, that supports aspiring founders building for India, Africa, and the Caribbean, while Akshay Kothari, cofounder of Notion, a San Francisco-based productivity startup, has launched the Kothari fellowship along with his brothers, for Indian students below 25.
