BootCamp: Mini Startup Accelerator cum B-Plan Competition E-Summit 2021

What is BootCamp?
Bootcamp is a four-week-long, Mini Startup Accelerator cum B-Plan Competition that provides early-stage startups with the requisite expertise and skills to make it big in the outside world.

Bootcamp works through a carefully designed mixture of workshops and startup-specific mentoring that imparts knowledge efficiently. It focusses on participatory learning and interaction within the cohort to push the limits of startups, generate new perspectives and nudge founders to be proactive leaders while equipping them with vital social skills necessary to mobilize people and resources. The prospective outcome of Bootcamp is a cohort of well-developed startups with a viable Business Plan who are ready for Incubation.

Our Vision
Ideas are critical; but execution is the key. With 1.3 billion people, India faces no shortage of ideas nor human capital. It’s the elusiveness of resources and lack of the initial push towards actualizing an idea that holds us down. Bootcamp seeks to solve this very problem and brings ideas closer to reality.
