Fellowships open a door for campus entrepreneurs

Data from Superscout, a platform that tracks VC fellowship and scout programmes globally, shows that from a total of about 10,000 applications across such programmes, India’s participation has held steady at 12% over the past three years, up from around 7–8% in earlier cohorts (2020-2022). There is strong representation from IITs, IIMs, and BITS, with relatively fewer applicants from US or UK universities. Also, India-based applicants skew toward founders, operators, and students, with relatively fewer candidates from a finance background.
