What Is 40 City About?
The 40 City Roadshow
Is Designed To Bridge This Gap.
India's Startup Ecosystem Is Largely Concentrated In Metro Cities, Leaving Many High-Potential Startups In Tier 2 And Tier 3 Cities Without Access To Capital, Networks, And Visibility.
The 40 City Roadshow
Is Designed To Bridge This Gap.
It Is A Structured, Nationwide Platform That Identifies Promising Startups Across 40 Cities, Evaluates Them Through A Rigorous Process, And Connects Them With The Right Investors In A Focused, High-Intent Environment.
