TiE Pune Nurture Accelerator Program is a comprehensive, process-driven initiative led by industry titans with vast experience and expertise in nurturing impactful businesses. Designed to help growth-stage startups achieve new heights, this program provides invaluable support at a critical stage of their journey. For Nurture 13, we received an overwhelming response, with 190 applications from startups not only from Pune but also across the country. Yesterday, we had the privilege of screening close to 90 of them, handpicked after an initial round of evaluation. The sheer diversity in ideas, sectors, innovations, and the scale of these startups and their teams was truly inspiring. However, Nurture isn't just about selecting startups—each one is special in its own way. We also assess whether the Nurture program is the right fit for them at this stage. We wish all the participants the very best on their entrepreneurial journey and look forward to seeing their continued growth.
