nurture.farm Launches Incubation Program 'Catalyst' for Startups in the Agri-Tech Space

The program will provide infrastructural, networking and technological support to pre-revenue, seed-funded, angel-funded Agri-tech startups

The Ag-tech industry has grown leaps and bounds in a short period, with several startups venturing into the space. However, they require guidance, mentorship, and access to resources to build a viable business. Against this backdrop, nurture.farm, India’s largest and leading ag-tech company is on a quest to build a resilient and sustainable farming ecosystem through tech-led solutions, and has launched its incubation program - Catalyst - to help agri-tech startups sustain themselves and expand further.

nurture.farm Catalyst will help agri-tech startups collaborate with key stakeholders across the agricultural ecosystem, gain capital for sustenance, test their products or solutions at scale, and gain access to infrastructural, knowledge and human resources. The program will offer its incubatees a wide spectrum of support to enable them and accelerate their growth journey. This incubation program focuses on nurturing the growth stage, pre-revenue, seed-funded, or angel-funded startups. It intends to support, collaborate and champion these startups as they break new grounds.

By partnering with nurture.farm, the startups can benefit from its experience, tap into their rural network, leverage industry connections, and the goodwill the company has garnered over time.

Dhruv Sawhney, Business Head & COO of nurture.farm, said, "Agricultural productivity is at an all-time low. Food security is at risk, with an ever-growing population set to reach 10 billion by 2050. In addition, pests, diseases, and natural calamities destroy more than 40% of annual production, thus resulting in an annual loss of over USD 108 billion due to damaged or lost crops.

nurture.farm has built digital highways to connect the heartlands of India by building robust technology platforms, Agri e-commerce marketplaces, market linkages, supply chain networks, advisory services, financial solutions, and shared economy models. The need of the hour is for the industry to come together, pool resources, exchange information, and share learnings to foster growth and scale quickly.

As we look at the various problems in the Agri industry, we realize that we need to pave the way for other Agtech startups to drive innovation & change. These budding startups can leverage our ecosystem, test their solution offerings at scale to establish a product-market fit, and help solve the challenges for the farmers, the Agri ecosystem, and the planet. The time to act is now, and our incubation program 'Catalyst' is another step toward achieving the same. We need to start focusing on fostering sustainable agricultural practices and work to integrate technology in this sector to solve the problems.”

Aspiring startups can apply for the program on nurture.farm’s website. Our knowledge partners include organizations like UPL, NPP, Advanta, and Decco. An experienced panel of experts from the agricultural industry will review each application, mentor startups, and help them grow. The program will accept entries until 31st March 2023.

Venture Catalysts Ties with Wopreneur to Launch Incubation Programme for Women Entrepreneurs

Venture Catalysts, India’s first integrated incubator, recently joined hands with Women entrepreneurship focused ecosystem facilitator Wopreneur to initiate an incubation programme dedicated to assist women entrepreneurs in their start-up journey.

The initiative was developed after realizing the massive need to extend formal funding facilities to the growing number of women entrepreneurs in the country, by providing them systematic training and know-how to develop their business model, fine tune ideas, enhance pitching capabilities and create better value for the segment.

The 12 week women entrepreneur exclusive incubation programme was started after interviewing more than 4806 women entrepreneurs across the country, which helped VCats and Wopreneur to zero in on the target areas and boost the collective woman entrepreneurial ecosystem as a whole.

Application Link - https://goo.gl/a3Vrsb

Women entrepreneurs have traditionally found it difficult to
acquire sufficient capital to support their business ventures due to various
socio-economic reasons. For instance, women generally do not have the rights to
familial property, which stops them from using it as mortgage or collateral to
raise business funds. As a result, they have to either opt for informal lending
sources with higher interest rate or turn to friends and acquaintances, which
are ineffective when large amount of corpus is involved. The initiative was
developed to help women entrepreneurs overcome this bottleneck, and provide
them comprehensive training during the entire pre and post pitching stage that
helps them pitch their ideas effectively to institutional investors.

Commenting on the programme, Dr. ApoorvRanjan Sharma,
Founder, Venture Catalysts said, “Through our extensive networking
events and efforts to reach out to the start-up community, we realized that the
numbers of women entrepreneurs across the country were steadily growing.
However, these highly talented business women were under-confident of their
abilities to raise funds and pitch their ideas to potential investors, due to a
lack of exposure to such scenarios.

We joined hands with Wopreneur, a dedicated women
entrepreneurial ecosystem facilitator platform to fill this gap by undertaking
a detailed, mentoring focused incubation programme that empowers women
entrepreneurs. Furthermore, the programme is set to conclude with a pitching
event wherein the best business ideas and entrepreneurs will be pitching their
concepts to the large networking community of VCats. We believe that the programme
will be a huge step forward in facilitating the growth of women
entrepreneurship in the country and transform them into strong, self-reliant
and experienced entrepreneurial figures ready to engage with institutional
investors and strike deals that optimize the growth and value prospects of
their business along with enriching the women entrepreneur community with lots
of opportunities and prospects.”

Wopreneur, with a 10,000+ strong community of women
entrepreneurs and professionals, has been at the forefront of empowering women
business leaders compete shoulder-to-shoulder with the best in the business.
“It is disappointing to see great business ideas developed by women
entrepreneurs be stuck in anonymity due to a paucity of funds or lack of
investment opportunities.” Founder, Neha Chatterjee, Wopreneur
said. “VCats, being one of the biggest investment incubators in Asia, has
strongly backed this movement that will certainly have larger socio-economic
ramifications, rather than the immediate huge objective of enabling women
entrepreneurs seek the necessary funds to launch their projects through
independent negotiations with famous investors. Through our 10 month long
research, we realized how crucial a role formal investment can play in bringing
these ideas to the forefront of the start-up ecosphere and why training is
necessary for the entrepreneurs to defeat this status quo. We hope the
participants will be able to generate a lot of funds post the programme through
pitching events, and break many glass ceilings in the process.”

Application process to attend the programme will begin from
March 8 onwards and interested candidates can connect via the social media
pages of VCats as well as Wopreneur.The initiative seems to serve as the
perfect training ground for women entrepreneurs looking to hone their pitching,
networking and fund-raising skills, while the subsequent pitching event will
serve as the ideal launch pad for high potential business ideas to secure the
funds required to convert their business vision into a reality.
