Favcy Venture Builders’ Post

The most awaited startup list of the month is out! We are so excited to announce this month’s 30 Startups To Watch series – featuring the 30 hottest startups on our radar for July 🚀 According to Inc42’s “India’s Top Startup Investor Ranking H1 2024 Survey,” more than 90% of the 50+ surveyed investors view 2024 as the turnaround year for Indian startups. In this month’s cohort, we observed that a mere 8 startups raised more than $1 Mn in funding – signalling the fading reliance on external capital. However, 16 early stage startups raised $1 Mn or below and the remaining were proudly bootstrapped. With this trend, it is safe to assume that the persistent funding correction has made early stage startups less reliant on initial funding. Meanwhile, around a quarter of these startups are in the D2C space, with the remaining spanning fields as diverse as cleantech, B2B SaaS, generative AI, edtech and gaming. Now, as we welcome the resurgence of optimism in the Indian startup space with the annulment of angel tax and receding funding winter, here are the 30 startups that caught our attention in July. Let’s take a look at who made the list 👀👇 #startups #30stw #entrepreneurship

Unicorns are typically disruptive innovators that experience rapid growth and attract significant attention from investors But here's an interesting fact.

What's a unicorn 🦄 startup? I get asked this a lot. A unicorn startup is a company with a valuation over $1 billion USD. Unicorns by default are 'startups’, because it doesn't include companies that have exited, were acquired, or are listed companies. Since October 2022, there are 180 Unicorns 🦄 globally, and they've been grouped in 3 key segments (keep in mind, these segment labels are broad): 47 Unicorns in ClimateTech, 36 in EdTech, and 97 HealthTech. See below 👇 for a subset of the Unicorns globally. Source: holoniq

Our co-founder, Rohit Bansal, shared insights at Inc42 Media's D2C Summit! During the panel discussion on “Decoding The Great Indian Retail Opportunity,” Rohit emphasized a pivotal shift in the Indian startup landscape. 🌟 “I expect a large number of Indian startups to go public early in the next few years. I also believe the current fixation of startups zooming their toplines before taking the IPO plunge is also set to change as more companies will look at the listing at earlier stages,” he said.
