Emerging India Acceleration Program 2.0
Sangam Innovation Foundation successfully completed Emerging India Acceleration Program 1.0 for its maiden cohort. The year-long program apart from launch, had a midterm retreat and a demo day for startups to showcase their products/services. During the program startups interacted with industry mentors from various fields eg. product development, customer development, legal, financial management & marketing through virtual workshops and field visits. Program supported startups for achieving product-market fit, refine business strategies for new market entry and become investment ready.

For underserved consumers
Start-ups developing products or services that are either components, raw materials or functionality (could include software, mobile or internet based technologies) that local entrepreneurs can use to create product or services to serve their local communities (could include artisanal customization to meet local consumer needs or preferences).
For disenfranchised producers
Start-ups developing products or services that are either components or machinery for local producers usage to improve the value of their output that they sell outside of their local markets, this could include startups that incrementally provide market linkages.
