After the resounding success of the first four editions of the India Fund Fest the hugely popular platform has launched the inaugural North East India Fund Fest. This will give budding entrepreneurs in the region from diverse industries an opportunity to get on to a path of accelerated funding. The finale will be held on 28th February 2020 at the Taj Guwahati. It is the first time that the platform has launched a regional event. The event is being organized in partnership with TIE Guwahati. The platform is owned by Natio Cultus Consultancy Pvt Ltd. - Hyderabad. Registrations opened from 24thJanuary for the inaugural edition.
This is a business funding program that has become hugely popular because of its distraction free format as there is no carnival like atmosphere no speeches of sponsors no panel discussions no stalls to sell products and services and no crowds of unrelated people and needless networking ndash; only entrepreneurs and the matched investors. In the previous four national editions of the event entrepreneurs from across India and 47 other countries registered and participated.
For the inaugural North East India Fund Fest 20 entrepreneurs will be selected through a rigorous filtering process out of the 1000+ applications expected. The selection of these startups will be made by an eminent jury and through a proprietary Investor Readiness Report; process ensuring the companies are thoroughly vetted. The entrepreneurs will be from a wide range of industries. These finalists will be pitching in front of 8-10 Master Investors to get deals needed to take their businesses to the next level.
The event will be recorded to be telecast as a web TV series on the North East India Fund Fest Youtube channel.
