11 startup studios in Gujarat. A startup studio builds companies in-house with a shared team and then spins them out, so it works more like a co-founder than a programme you apply to with your own idea.

A startup studio is a company that builds other companies. It supplies a shared team of product, design and engineering people and often the first funding, and in return takes a large share of the new company. Some studios come up with the ideas and hire a founder to run them; others partner with an outside founder who brings the idea.
That makes the question of who the studio works with the first one to answer. If you already have a company, a studio that only builds its own ideas is not a fit, while one that co-builds with outside founders may be. If you want to start a company but have no idea yet, a studio can give you one along with the people to build it.
The trade is control for speed and resources. Before you join a studio in Gujarat, be clear on how much of the company you will own, what the studio provides and for how long, and what happens if the project is stopped.
