The Nasdaq Entrepreneurial Center has partnered with Startup India to launch their Milestone Makers India program in New Delhi in May 2017, their first venture in India.
They are now inviting early-to-mid-stage founders in India to apply or nominate an entrepreneur for the May 2017 cohort.
Having launched the Milestone Makers program last year in San Francisco, they are helping early-to- mid-stage founders set, hit, and celebrate milestones critical to company growth.
Through their joint networks and expertise, they’ll be working with up to 25 entrepreneurs on a custom learning path to help each selected founder over a 12-week timeframe.
Foundational to the program is a network of support: each founder will have a coach, acting as a sounding board, and 3-4 business mentors, a customized set of classes, and access to state-of- the-art resources —all valued at approximately $250,000.
During the past year, the Center has supported more than 3,000 entrepreneurs in 200 programs.
“With the current entrepreneurship boom, there are a lot of innovative ideas that without proper execution and customer access are resulting in a higher failure rate among startups in India. We are excited to partner with Nasdaq on the Milestone Makers program to support companies in establishing a clear vision along with a sustainability plan”, said Yatin K Thakur, Founder of Startup India Advisory Services.
