Ahmedabad: GVFL, the pioneer of venture capital in India, will showcase its accelerate for excellence (a4X) platform, aimed at promoting the early-stage investment ecosystem by bringing closer all stakeholders, at the upcoming Vejalpur Startup Festival.
Vejalpur Startup Festival is an initiative by hon’ble Vejalpur MLA Amit Thaker to empower youth at the constituency level with an incredible chance to network, learn and grow. The Festival will be inaugurated by hon’ble Home Minister Amit Shah and hon’ble Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel.
The Vejalpur Startup Festival’s highlights include learning & inspiring sessions, startup expo, startup pitching & live funding, and startup mentoring. It will allow startups and entrepreneurs to elevate their entrepreneurial knowledge with insightful sessions from industry experts. Startups will be showcasing their cutting-edge products and services. It will provide startups with an opportunity to pitch their ideas before investors and secure funding on the spot. Participants will also gain valuable guidance and advice from seasoned mentors to grow their startups.
GVFL launched the a4X platform last year to accelerate the growth of startups by connecting them with the right investors, mentors and community members. In addition to being an investor, GVFL is also playing the role of an enabler with the a4X platform.
GVFL Managing Director Kamal Bansal, who is among the expert speakers at the festival on February 3, said, “We look forward to talking about a4X and the difference it is making at the Vejalpur Startup Festival. a4X is much more than an investment platform. It is a vibrant ecosystem that is disrupting the early-stage investment ecosystem. We have onboarded institutional and individual investors and the response has been very encouraging. Our participation in the startup festival also showcases our commitment to the growth of the startup ecosystem,” he said
