SUMMARY
Inc42 hosted Pulse42 this week in Bengaluru
IIT Bombay is hosting the sixth The Ten Minute Million
TiECon is hosting an entrepreneurial leadership conclave this week
This week, Inc42 hosted Pulse42, its first startup event in Bengaluru for the new year. The signature tech party was all about great food, cocktails, warm conversations and opportunities to connect with big names in the startup communities in an informal setting with all the important folks from the startup ecosystem.
For its first edition for 2020, Pulse42 is brought ‘The Pulse of Tech’ outside monotonous meeting rooms in India’s startup capital. The event was supported by annual partners—Times Internet, AWS, Paytm, HSBC and NetApp Excellerator. Well, for a change Inc42’s no agenda came with an agenda this time, to bid farewell to the decade gone by.
Until last year, Pulse42 had been a closed-door event for the attendees, but with the ever-growing community and after doing 10 editions of Pulse42 and engaging over 1000 founders, investors and ecosystem enablers, it was time to give more people a chance to experience the same.
As we step into a new week, here’s a list of upcoming events:
The Ten Minute Million
Cutting down on the long and exhausting process of fundraising, E-Cell IIT Bombay’s sixth edition of The Ten Minute Million (TTMM) is finally here. The Ten Minute Million is a platform where entrepreneurs get 10 minutes to impress the pool of investors and get an award of INR 16 Lakh.
The previous five TTMM editions witnessed one out of every two startups winning investor praises and funding. Around 18 successful pitches received on-spot funding worth INR 16 Lakh. Over the years, the investor panel had several investors like Ajeet Khurana, Sanjay Mehta, Bharat Banka, Suneel Bandhu, and Tufail Khan.
TTMM is a part of The Entrepreneurship Summit organised by E-Cell, IIT Bombay, scheduled on February 1 and 2, 2020. The theme for this year is ‘A Brio Breakthrough’. On February 2, 2020, the six finalist startups will pitch their ideas for a chance to win on-the-spot funding at IIT Bombay.
