For startups

You should not have to already know someone.

PRISM is built for founders who are building something serious and are one introduction away from the person who could change it.

Why apply

What you actually get.

01

Mentors matched to you

By sector and stage, against the problem you are actually stuck on — not whoever was free.

02

Investors who arrive informed

The Alliance sees your diligence before the meeting. You pitch the business, not the basics.

03

A room near where you build

City rounds across twenty-five cities. You should not need a Bengaluru address to be seen.

04

Permanent network membership

The Founders Network does not end when the programme does. Nobody ages out.

05

No fee, no equity

Applying costs nothing and we take no stake. We are not an accelerator.

06

A real answer either way

If you are not selected you get the reason. Silence is not feedback.

How it goes

Four steps, and you know where you stand at each one.

Apply

Fifteen minutes. Founder, company, and what you are actually building.

Screen

We review within three weeks and tell you either way.

Pitch

City round near you, judged by operators and investors.

Connect

Mentor match and Alliance introductions, whatever the result.

Three ways in

Potential is evenly distributed. Access is not.

PRISM exists to close that gap. Pick the door that fits you.

Founders

You have a company and you need mentors, capital and a room that takes you seriously.

Apply

Mentors

You have built something. Give a few hours a month to founders who are where you were.

Join the circle

Investors
