The partnership will focus on nurturing and exponentially scaling seed-stage companies in the health, food, and agri-tech sectors in the region. 

The 3-month acceleration program will enable selected startups to receive guidance and mentorship from experienced founders and industry experts and a significant initial investment of Rs. 75 lakh to Rs 2.50 crore, providing the necessary capital to fuel growth. 

Speaking about the collaboration, Kamal Bansal, managing director of GVFL, said, “We are thrilled to introduce the Xcelerate Program in partnership with Marwari Catalysts. Gujarat is brimming with entrepreneurial talent and is home to one of the largest and most vibrant startup ecosystems in the country.
