WHAT IS #FINDINGMISFITS & #MISFITS
#FindingMisfits is our event for cutting-edge founders to get noticed, funded and learn.
#Misfits is our Cohort based Scale-Up Program where we bring the power of Senior Entrepreneurs to help in areas that matter: Scaling up efficiently, Raising funds confidently and Hiring right.
We are on a mission to empower #Misfits who dream to change the world and work hard to turn it into a reality. In these events, we call for pitches from entrepreneurs and the top 3 startups get a chance to receive funding between $500k and $1.5 Million along with a comprehensive springboard from us. Additionally, we bring together successful entrepreneurs, venture capital investors and startup ecosystem builders for a day filled with learning sessions, panel discussions and informal networking events.
Each #FindingMisfits event carries a forward-looking theme that aims to ignite many future startups in the country. The latest edition was focused on FINTECH & INSURTECH.
