No Image
Accel and Prosus each commit $1 m to early-stage Indian leap-tech startups via new accelerator track, signaling institutional pre-seed interest amid slow venture flows.
Global investment firms Accel and Prosus will each invest $1 million in early-stage Indian and Indian-origin founders under the newly launched ‘Atoms X’ accelerator track focused on leap-tech innovations. The programme, designed to back startups pushing the frontier of product or business model innovation, will target transformative ideas rather than incremental improvements. The investment aims to seed 20–30 companies, strengthen India’s startup ecosystem and signal fresh institutional interest at the pre-seed level even as overall venture flows remain soft in 2025.
