Any person who is a startup enthusiast should attend the event. Whether you are thinking of an idea and want to develop it further, or you are looking for Series C funding, the event will be useful to you.

♦ What am I Paying for?

The ticket entitles you to attend all sessions including workshops. You can register for one on one sessions and participate in SMC Select also, without any further payment. If you have bought a normal ticket, it will include lunch and tea on both days, while the budget ticket (primarily for IITP students) does not include the meals. If your ticket includes stay,  accommodation will be arranged in one of the hostels of the institute.

♦ For one on one session, is it necessary for me to have already established a startup?

No. You may like to validate your idea and plan for the way forward with the help of a mentor or investor. If you already are working on a startup, you can discuss with a investor or mentor to get ideas on a issue of your interest.

The duration depends upon the mutual interest of both parties but normally it may last between 5 to ten minutes. Plus it depends upon the demand and time available of the expert.

♦ What is the criterion for allocation of one on one session?

♦ How is the selection for SMC Select done?

A panel of experts go thru each presentation. Each startup is evaluated against a set of criterion and marks given for that by the panel members. The decision of the panel is final and binding.
