Thanks to NASSCOM 10,000 Startups for running an amazing initiative like InnoTrek and also for selecting MetaMorphoSys Technologies as one of the 40 emerging startups. The 5 days with the entire InnoTrek delegation has been an amazing experience. Now it is upto each startup to change gears and take their companies to next level. This forum has now connected us to other 39 amazing startup founders from whom we can learn, network, partner and collaborate. Some of us are also trying to partner and create an ecosystem for end to end solution using each other’s products and IP. The sessions we had with some of the most innovative US companies like Google, Nvidia etc have given us a perspective on the latest trends and innovation happening in the valley. Personally for MetaMorphoSys, the highlight was introduction to Plugandplay accelerator. They have an ecosystem of about top 60 insurance companies. We have a meeting with some of the management of Plugandplay to explore how we can get investment or work with these companies.

Ikarus being an enterprise startup from India, InnoTrek was an insightful exposure to the Silicon Valley and its culture. Spread over 4 action packed days, it facilitated interactions with investors, accelerators and potential customers and provided a soft landing space for startups looking to enter into US market. The program was well planned and superbly executed. Kudos to NASSCOM 10,000 Startups team for arranging this!

NASSCOM 10,000 Startups InnoTrek 2018 has been a great experience for us. Our prime objective from the trip was to understand our readiness as a business to make a transition from India to USA. InnoTrek helped us meet with distinguished people who started off in India and made it big in the US, we met multiple enterprises to see if our solution had a product market fit there and finally we have been able to initiate conversations with couple of investors and accelerators. All the sessions were planned well and was a good learning experience. We thank the entire team Sahil, Kritika, Jaya and KSV for this wonderful opportunity.

The action packed InnoTrek event in the valley was a great opportunity for Bizlem. We met with the top investors, enterprises and accelerators, and were able to attract great interest both in terms of business as well as investment. In addition to this, we have formed partnerships with other startups who were a part of the program. Some have given us business opportunities while others have introduced to their existing partner ecosystem. I would like to extend my sincere gratitude to NASSCOM 10,000 Startups for organising such a focussed program.
