PhysicsWallah partners with DPIIT to support early-stage ventures

PhysicsWallah’s School of Startups (PW SoS) has signed a two-year memorandum of understanding with the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) to support early-stage ventures, particularly in Tier-II and III cities and rural areas. 

The partnership combines training and mentoring with prototype development, incubation, investor access and seed capital.

“Supporting entrepreneurs beyond Tier-I cities is key to building a stronger startup ecosystem in India. Our partnership with PhysicsWallah School of Startups will help grassroots innovators access the resources, mentorship and infrastructure they need to turn their ideas into scalable, job-creating businesses across Bharat,” said Ateesh Kumar Singh, Additional Secretary at DPIIT.

PW SoS, an accredited incubator under Uttar Pradesh’s StartinUP initiative, has programmes for founders at different stages. PW UDYAMI combines 90 days of live online training with a year of mentorship. Aarambh Immersion is a five-day residential programme for prototype development, pitches and networking. The Growth Stage CEO Programme is designed for 200 DPIIT-recognised startups across four hybrid cohorts, while the six-month PW DeepTech Accelerator targets selected ventures. 

The annual National AI Startup Challenge and SeedX are intended to offer proof-of-concept opportunities, corporate pilots and seed investment. The release also cites incubation and seed grants through the StartinUP Business Incubation Centre in Uttar Pradesh.

Rounaq Mustafa, Head of PW SoS, said the aim was to widen access to support. “True empowerment means making knowledge, mentorship and funding accessible to aspiring entrepreneurs across Bharat.
