Bharat Pitchathon 4.0 in Delhi invites startups from across sectors to pitch their innovative solutions and gain access to funding, acceleration programs, mentorship, and strategic networking opportunities.
Bharat Pitchathon 4.0 offers startups from any sector the chance to raise funds from a curated pool of 50+ early-stage investors. In addition, startups may be selected for accelerator programs that provide tangible growth benefits. Participants also gain validation and expert feedback, along with high-impact brand visibility and access to Headstart boosters and startup credits worth up to INR 1.5 Crores. The program includes mentorship and masterclasses with industry experts, with special benefits for startups eligible under EkStep Foundation programs.
The program seeks startups that are solving big problems in high-growth markets, demonstrating strong traction, and possessing teams capable of becoming market leaders. It also evaluates whether the startup has a sustainable competitive advantage and how its idea contributes to societal impact.
To be eligible, startups must have been operational for at least five months, with at least one founder working full-time. They must be registered as a Private Limited or LLP company in India, or be in the process of registration, and have an active website. Idea-stage startups are not eligible.
It is important to note that Bharat Pitchathon is an invite-only event. Filling out the application form does not guarantee shortlisting for pitching, as selections are communicated one week prior to the regional edition. The information provided by startups will only be shared with investors or judges upon request, and the organizing team retains the right to make changes to the format as required.
