Impact methodology

What each number means.

Definitions, reporting scope, source material, and limits for the figures used across this website.

Published program figures

2.97M people reached: The aggregate program-reported reach of Cohort 1 ventures. “Reached” describes the number recorded by the ventures and program. It does not claim that every person had a long-term outcome independently verified.
$12.8M raised: The aggregate amount recorded as raised by Cohort 1 ventures after the program. The public source does not provide a venture-by-venture audit schedule, so the website labels this as program-reported rather than independently audited.
32 ventures: The 15 ventures in Cohort 1 and 17 ventures in Cohort 2. A venture is counted once in its cohort.
Six countries: Unique primary venture countries represented across the two completed cohorts: India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Singapore, Hong Kong SAR, and Thailand.

Scope and timing

Cohort 1 launched in 2025 and closed with Demo Day in Bangalore in June 2025.
Cohort 2 ran from October 2025 to Demo Day in Jakarta on 29 April 2026.
Cohort 2 outcome totals are not published here until the reporting set is complete and approved.
Market-size figures describe the wider context. They are not presented as program outcomes.
Individual venture figures remain attributed to each venture unless independently verified.
