About Venture Studio

Ellenox's venture studio partners with early-stage founders to build companies together. It states plainly that it is not an accelerator and not an agency: instead it becomes part of the founding team and works alongside founders as co-founders, builders and advisers.

What you get

  • A studio that co-builds the company with you as part of your founding team
  • Advisory and hands-on building support through the early stages

Who can apply

  • Early-stage founders, from idea or prototype through MVP, pre-revenue, post-revenue and scaling
  • Founders based in India or elsewhere; the studio says it has partnered with companies across three continents
  • No stated campus or community requirement

How to apply: Approach the studio through the contact and application form on its site, which routes founders by stage. There is no fixed deadline or batch; intake runs through the form.
