Startup Mentorship
Mentorship for founders building something real.
One-to-one guidance from first idea to fundraising — grounded in research, real cases, and time spent inside India’s startup ecosystem.
I work with early-stage founders and student entrepreneurs who want more than generic advice. As an entrepreneurship researcher and a member of the GCCI Start-up & Innovation Committee — and a World Economic Forum Global Shaper — I bring both the evidence and the ecosystem to the table. We work on the decisions that actually move your venture forward.
How I can help
Idea & validation
Pressure-test the idea, find the real problem, and validate before you build.
Model & strategy
Shape a business model that works, and a strategy you can actually execute.
Funding & growth
Prepare to raise, navigate Startup India and DPIIT, and plan for sustainable growth.
How it works
- Start with a free 15-minute intro call
- We map your single biggest challenge
- Choose a one-off session or ongoing advisory
- Work the problem together, with clear next steps
Who I work with
First-time and early-stage founders, student entrepreneurs, and small teams who want a thinking partner with both academic depth and real ecosystem connections. If that’s you, let’s talk.
