At STPI Tech Summit 2026 – India’s Next Leap, Shri Amish Dedhia (@amishdedhia), Principal, Chiratae Ventures, delivered an insightful session on the topic “From Seed to Scale: Building the Capital Continuum India’s Deep-Tech Startups Need to Take Their Next Leap.” 🎙️✨
Drawing from Chiratae Ventures’ two-decade journey in venture investing, he demystified the startup funding lifecycle — from bootstrapping and angel investments to venture capital and eventual public markets. He explicated how venture capital serves as a defining milestone in a startup’s growth journey, providing not just capital, but credibility, governance frameworks, strategic guidance and access to wider networks.
Highlighting the role of investors as long-term partners, Shri Dedhia noted that venture capital firms help founders transform vision into scale by enabling access to customers, ecosystems, mentorship and critical market insights.
The session offered valuable perspectives on how founders can navigate the path from innovation to impact and why strong capital ecosystems are essential for India's deep-tech ambitions. 💡
