Venture Catalysts, India’s first integrated incubator and accelerator platform organized an outreach program in Faridabad to connect with a growing community of investors, industrialists and HNIs in the area and showcase start-ups as a high potential asset class to them. The program is the first step of Venture Catalysts’ objective to establish an incubator center in Faridabad for emerging start-ups and leverage the industrial infrastructure to create an ideal Launchpad for start-ups. The event took place on 13th July at Radisson Blu Faridabad. The event was attended by several luminaries and leading business figures including SK Jain- Indo Autotech limited, Dr. S K Goel - Star Wire India Ltd, Rakesh Gupta - RPS Group India, Ravinder Gupta - PR PACKAGINGS ltd, Manoj Tantia - Techno Springs India Pvt Ltd. and Suresh Chandra - Grand Columbus Schools among others.

Commenting on the event Aayushi Jain, Managing Partner at Venture Catalysts said, “VCats’ Faridabad event was a great success that witnessed extensive participation from members of the Faridabad business community. It was graced by the presence of 170+ industrialists, HNIs and investors from Faridabad. 3 start-ups also presented their business ideas to the audience in a highly engaging session that received great appreciation from the participants. The entire session was quite an eye-opener for most of the audience since they have never participated in this asset class, and expressed their interest to become a member of the Venture Catalysts and start investing in startups together.”
