As India cements its position as a global startup hub, Startup Mahakumbh 2025 stands out as one of the largest gatherings of entrepreneurial minds in the country. Scheduled from April 3 to 5, 2025, at Bharat Mandapam, New Delhi, the event will bring together over 3,000 startups, 1,000+ investors, and delegates from more than 50 countries, offering unmatched opportunities for innovation, collaboration, and growth.

This three-day mega event is designed to provide startups with everything they need to scale—networking, funding, mentorship, exposure, and talent. Here's why every founder, investor, and ecosystem enabler should consider being part of it.

Startups will have the rare opportunity to connect directly with over 1,000 active investors and incubators, making it a prime venue to pitch, build meaningful relationships, and attract funding. The Startup MahaRathi Challenge, a flagship competition, offers early to growth-stage startups national recognition from DPIIT, funding support from a ₹30 crore pool, and mentorship across sectors like AI, FinTech, HealthTech, and more.

The event is a gateway to global exposure, as delegates from more than 50 countries will be in attendance. This allows participating startups to showcase innovations on an international platform, attract cross-border investors, and explore market expansion opportunities. Through dedicated thematic pavilions, startups will present their solutions across major industries such as DeepTech, Sustainability, and AgriTech, drawing the attention of relevant stakeholders including policymakers, corporate leaders, and investors.

Another major highlight is the learning ecosystem built into the event. Attendees can engage in masterclasses, panel discussions, and exclusive mentoring zones powered by The Indus Entrepreneurs (TiE), where seasoned mentors and industry veterans will offer actionable insights into scaling, funding, and navigating regulatory challenges.

In addition to open sessions, closed-door investor roundtables and B2B meetings will foster strategic collaborations and long-term partnerships. Startups can also launch and demo products live, gathering real-time feedback from key players in the ecosystem. For those looking to expand their teams, the event provides an ideal platform to recruit top talent, with 3,000+ startups in attendance.

Future innovators will also take the stage through the Futurepreneurs Program, which invites student-led teams to showcase AI-driven ideas, compete for a ₹1 crore prize pool, and access expert guidance.

Whether you’re just starting out or running a growth-stage venture, Startup Mahakumbh promises inspiration, opportunity, and transformation. From practical funding support and hiring to global visibility and expert mentorship, the event is structured to benefit every type of startup.
