Expanding the Entrepreneurship Ecosystem
LaunchPilot operates with the core principles of “Learn, Build, and Scale,” aimed at assisting aspiring entrepreneurs, working professionals, and first-time founders on their “0-1” journey. This innovative strategy supports entrepreneurs in developing and implementing their ideas, accelerating their growth by connecting them with seasoned mentors and investors who provide invaluable knowledge and insights. The goal is to help these entrepreneurs prepare for growth and investment by co-building their ideas alongside them.
Addressing Key Challenges
According to data from Startup India, India boasts one of the top 3 startup ecosystems worldwide, with over 112,718 DPIIT-recognized startups spread across 763 districts. Despite this impressive statistic, many Indian startups fail early due to a lack of market knowledge, effective mentorship, networking opportunities, founder burnout, team-building challenges, fundraising difficulties, essential business knowledge, and flawed business models. LaunchPilot aims to address these common hurdles faced by startup founders, thereby contributing to the advancement of economic empowerment, innovation, and entrepreneurship in India.
LaunchPilot’s Approach and Collaborations
LaunchPilot began with collaborations with several respected academic institutions and communities, including NUS Singapore, NTU Singapore, IIM Bodhgaya, Eden Academy, and RemoteYear, to support gig economy training and assist student entrepreneurs. Realizing the problems faced by founders in their 0-1 journey, LaunchPilot expanded its offerings through its Startup School initiative, which helps individuals learn, build, and scale their ideas effectively.
Comments on India Expansion
Sarvesh Tusnial, Co-Founder of LaunchPilot, commented on this significant expansion: “Entrepreneurship has the potential to impact so many lives, and yet so many founders face difficulties in executing ideas because people can think of ideas but fail to execute them effectively. By launching our Startup School in India, we are driven by a singular mission: to empower aspiring entrepreneurs to actively build ideas into businesses!”
Join the Movement
LaunchPilot’s entry into India marks a new chapter in the country’s entrepreneurial landscape. With its unique approach to nurturing and supporting entrepreneurs, LaunchPilot aims to reduce the burden on startup founders and foster a thriving ecosystem of innovation and growth.
