#PNCamp Program, an iSPIRT initiative, is growing the Indian StartUp ecosystem by connecting founders and executives from high potential startups. We work with successful VCs and entrepreneurs to source the most promising entrepreneurs and help them on their journey. Once we have identified these startups, we build a multi-dimensional profile of each startup using surveys and algorithms developed by Stanford and Duke Researchers. Using this data we connect founders with the resources they need, link them with mentors who can help them grow, and introduce them to peers who can provide advice. In collaboration with iSPIRT selected members are invited to workshops to build their networks and accelerate their startup’s growth. PNCamp Program is a living laboratory whose aim is to help startups accelerate the Indian startup ecosystem with cutting edge innovation science.
