The India Accelerator (IA), in collaboration with V S Fortune, has launched the LeapFWD accelerator — a new opportunity for innovative startups in PropTech and ConTech to scale up and bring transformative ideas to India’s real-estate and construction sectors.
The program seeks early- and growth-stage ventures whose technologies could reshape building, infrastructure, and sustainable urban development. By participating in LeapFWD, founders get access to mentorship, enterprise networks, investor connections and pathways to pilot projects, enabling them to bridge the gap between innovation and market adoption.
LeapFWD supports startups working in areas such as smart real estate platforms, digital property marketplaces, virtual and augmented-reality tours, blockchain-based property transactions, building-information modelling and infrastructure planning tools. On the construction side, eligible projects include sustainable building materials, energy- and water-efficiency systems, automation, IoT-based monitoring of construction sites, drone surveying, robotics or 3D-printing-based modular construction, and IoT/AI-enabled construction-management platforms. The program thus covers a wide spectrum — from design and planning to execution, sustainability and technology-driven construction management.
Applicants selected for LeapFWD benefit from strategic advantages: the accelerator offers business development support including lead generation, B2B and B2G linkages, market access and pilot opportunities with corporates or government agencies. Founders receive one-to-one mentorship from seasoned domain experts and industry veterans, helping them refine their business models, connect with investors and accelerate go-to-market strategies. Additionally, the program facilitates access to funding and investment networks via IA and its partners, offering a strong springboard for scaling up.
With the backing of a substantial funding pool and a structured timeline, LeapFWD offers a streamlined path to growth. For ambitious technology-driven startups aiming to transform how buildings, cities, and infrastructure are conceived and built in India, this accelerator presents a compelling chance to develop, test and scale innovations with support from seasoned mentors, industry partners and investors. In a rapidly urbanizing India, LeapFWD could be the launchpad for the next generation of sustainable, tech-enabled built environments.
