Here’s The List of 31 Indian Startups From Y Combinator’s Summer’21 Demo Day

It was another great moment for the Indian startup ecosystem as 31 startups from the country made it to Y Combinator’s summer batch of 2021. 

For the summer batch of 2021, the US-based early-stage accelerator programme Y Combinator selected more than 370 startups from around the world and out of these, nearly 58 startups were from Asia alone, and 31 from India. 

What exactly is a ‘Demo Day’?

Twice a year, Y Combinator hosts a three-month-long programme under which it works with startups on its ideas and helps founders deal with investors and acquirers. 

Usually, 10 weeks into the programme, which happens either January through March or June through August, the accelerator hosts ‘Demo Day’, wherein startups can present their products and services to a specially selected audience of investors and press. 

The firm’s Winter Batch 2021, which culminated recently, included startups such as BimaPlan, BimaPe, GroMo, Tilt, ZOKO, and many others. Besides, some prominent startups backed by Y Combinator include ecommerce platform Meesho, fintech service provider Cleartax and fintech unicorn Khatabook, among others.
