Brandshoots Ventures

The Times of India Group, India’s largest media house, has initiated a new endeavour, “Brandshoots Ventures” – a focussed accelerator platform tailored for start-ups from the eastern states of India. The venture is backed by Times Group’s investment arm Brand Capital, which has invested marketing capital in 800+ growing companies in India over past 12 years. Brandshoots is an endeavour to unlock the startup potential in the East and emerge as a first choice of destination for any startup or entrepreneur with a vision to create a national brand. It is a first-of-a-kind Accelerator Platform, dedicated for Eastern India. If you think you have the potential to be the next powerful Consumer or Technology brand in India but your ideas are being constrained by resources, network and knowledge, you have reached your proverbial stepping stone to overcome the challenges. Tap into a pan-India market of consumers, early-stage investors and a pool of mentors across India, while running your startup from the East. At Brandshoots, you would be provided with mentoring on product refinement, marketing, business strategy and would be extended relevant business networks. As a startup, you are also supported with technology, space and incorporation facilities. Further, you would be extended the reach of Times Group to test-market your products and services. And once you are set for the next stage of growth, the platform would connect you with a bevy of early-stage investors.
