This program has already catalyzed the growth of 983 startups, with an impressive 32% from Tier 1 and 2 cities and 28% co-led by women—demonstrating our commitment to inclusive growth.
The Karnataka Accelerator Network (KAN) initiative further reinforces this vision by creating growth-stage acceleration cohorts that connect Bengaluru with the rest of Karnataka, ultimately set to benefit 302 startups over six cohorts in the next three years.
