Pedalstart launches community-based startup cohort in Gurugram
Gurugram-based incubator and accelerator Pedalstart launched Zero-to-One—a cohort for early-stage Indian startup founders. The programme offers Rs 5 lakh instant angel funds and Rs 25 lakh funds commitment.
The six-week online cohort will work with early-stage Indian startup founders between the proof-of-concept and early traction/revenue stages. Pedalstart will also provide assistance in the pitching process by letting founders present their concepts in front of angel investors and mentors.
“With Zero-to-One, we are aiming to provide all founders with the same opportunity to learn and grow, no matter the founders’ pedigree or experience. We are building Zero-to-One in a way that it will impact all selected founders and provide a lifelong alumnus title,” said Manas Pal, Founder of PedalStart.
The registration process for the cohort has begun and will end on November 18.
