In an exclusive interview, Sunil Shekhawat, CEO of SanchiConnect, shared insights into the remarkable transformation of the organization. What began as a mere platform for linking deep-tech early-stage founders with institutional investors has now burgeoned into the premier IP-led community for startups, funds, and industry connoisseurs. This growth has been marked by a staggering INR 60 Cr+ in investments and the establishment of key alliances with global accelerators.
Recent strategic maneuvers by SanchiConnect have seen the firm create synergies with international accelerators, aiming to uncover overseas business prospects for its members. A prime example of this is the partnership with Europe’s Orlen Group innovation accelerator, highlighting a commitment to fostering startups in the energy and sustainability sector on a worldwide basis.
The Incubation Management Software offered by SanchiConnect, known as SAAS, owes its success to its ever-evolving technology and its critical role in propelling the growth of its partners. The software has earned the trust of prominent Indian innovation networks, including NASSCOM Deeptech, CII, T-Hub, various IITs, and corporate innovation initiatives.
As a resource hub, SanchiConnect is instrumental in supporting its incubator partners. It aids in pinpointing high-potential startups for partnership opportunities and provides support to incubators in leveraging their networks for expansion and lasting success.
Envisioning the future, SanchiConnect is poised to further its mission of nurturing innovation and growth within the startup and incubator domain globally. With an ever-widening network and new strategic alliances, the company is positioned to significantly influence the landscape of tech-driven entrepreneurial ventures around the world.
