Headstart Bangalore 4.3

*Update on our next event at the bottom of this description.*

Welcome to the group of Startup Saturday Bangalore a forum for entrepreneurs to discuss, present, network and learn from peers, prospective customers, adopters, partners, and investors.

The fundamental idea is to have all parts of the innovation ecosystem interact with each other with high frequency and through rich conversation. We strongly believe that this would lead to faster evolution of the entire ecosystem.


Expect a Startup Saturday once a month on the second Saturday. Spend approx three hours spread across at least two interactive sessions and networking.

The first session is usually a demo. If you are an entrepreneur giving the demo, expect this session to be very interactive. Expect a lot of "whys" and "why nots" - a great way to refine the product and to figure out the areas which need more work and also the areas that are well covered. If you're a participant, expect a window into another business that can give you ideas about your own business or insights into how to design your product. Expect a lot of debate where your question to the speaker may actually get answered/countered by another participant! In short, look out for a brain tickling discussion.

The second session is usually a talk. This is usually on a skill that is needed by an entrepreneur - sales, marketing, product management, VC pitch, VC management, PR, hiring people etc. It can even be a talk about a product/services that cannot be demoed. This is usually done by someone who has hands on experience and insights. Again expect this to be highly interactive.

Lastly, you've an opportunity to meet everyone else over snacks and tea/coffee and network.
