Over the past decade, India has witnessed a surge in social entrepreneurship, with innovative startups tackling pressing challenges in education, healthcare, agriculture, and clean energy.

Through our Emergent Ventures India program, we've been supporting these transformative ideas from their earliest stages, providing not just funding but mentorship, networking opportunities, and operational support.

              Innovation thrives when we create spaces for diverse perspectives to collide and collaborate.

Dr. Rajan Anandan, Program Director

Our approach focuses on identifying promising entrepreneurs who demonstrate both innovative thinking and a deep commitment to social impact. The program provides seed funding ranging from ₹10-30 lakhs, along with access to our extensive network of mentors and industry experts.
