Accel and Prosus Join Forces to Back India’s “Leap Tech” Startups

[ed]

Venture giants Accel and Prosus have launched a new investment partnership to back Indian founders from day zero, marking Prosus’ first-ever formation-stage venture.
The duo will co-invest in startups solving population-scale challenges across automation, energy transition, internet services, and manufacturing — with initial checks of $100K–$1M.
Accel says the goal is to help India build original models, not just adapt global ones.
