FalconX, a US-based accelerator and gateway for international startups, has announced the launch of Global Immersion Program Cohort 2. This programme is designed to help Indian entrepreneurs grow and scale their companies in the US with the help of industry experts and corporate partners in Silicon Valley.

The programme includes an Entrepreneurial MasterClass, sessions on topics such as go to-market strategy, sales, pricing, and fundraising, and one-on-one mentorship from over 40 industry leaders. It culminates with a Technology Day where selected startups have the opportunity to pitch their startup to an audience of over 150 industry experts and venture capitalists.

FalconX also announced the launch of its first venture fund in 2023, with a focus on global early-stage B2B companies in the AI/ML, AR/VR, cleantech, Healthtech, and cloud infrastructure sectors. The fund will invest towards the scale and growth of startups mentored through the FalconX Gateway, including those graduating from its well-regarded Global Immersion Program.

The initial fund of $20 million will be managed by Murali Chirala and Vivek Vipul as General Partners.
