The Initiative
A Nation Waiting To Be Incubated
The pledge from the book, made operational. Our goal: incubate 100,000 entrepreneurs from India’s rural heartland — by connecting them to mentorship, network and a revolving, accountability-first support model.
How the programme works
Support that recycles, by design
Revolving, not a giveaway
The Village Venture Fund offers circular micro-equity that is repaid and recycled — so support keeps reaching the next founder.
Criteria-based & transparent
Support is earned on clear criteria and accountability. We connect founders to mentors and vetted investors — we do not hand out open grants.
Rooted in the rural heartland
Priority to founders building in towns and villages, solving real problems for their own communities.
