Product studios that make MVP under 5 lac

Currently I’m in the stage of building the MVP of my idea. Idea is not something unique. Already has a lot of competitors. In that scenario what is the chance of somebody investing in my startup. And I am also not from any tier 1 colleges or not an ex employee of any unicorn startups. In fact I am a college drop out from a tier 3 college. What is chance of I’m getting funding?

I am building a D2C fashion brand and need to raise money (20 Lakhs) to get things off the ground. I am from Tier-I IIT and a single founder. I have been trying to approach investors through multiple mediums. Cold mailing / LinkedIn. But things haven't worked. College alumni also don't seem to respond, let alone give any warm intro. How should I go about the fund raising process?

Hey guys, I am currently struggling with my startup and it’s product launch. Having talked to most of the VCs and getting ghosted, what should I do? I have built the product and it’s ready to be launched, have a small team but I am a solo founder. Applied to YC and even got referral from 2-3 YC founders, still no interview. Looking for $500k. Let me know if anyone knows anyone ❤️

Currently at mid-mvp stage fintech startup looking for pre-seed funding to resume their progress. Does this qualify the requirements to achieve a pre-seed funding ? I bootstrapped the startup myself at the beginning and we have not yet reached the stage where we can present a MVP for investors which is a huge setback we are currently facing. I tried to apply to few Indian based pre-seed ventures but all I got was just rejection mails not sure why. Prepared a pitch deck and a company structure profile although all our employees are remote. I just don't know who or how to approach an angel investor or a ventures firm so lacking expertise in this field. Suggestions would be appreciated ☺️

Acquiring funding for a startup in india has become a hassle. I myself have been doing research on seed funding Vc's and angel investors. All they ask is pitch deck and LinkedIn profile. Which they don't even go through and just reply with an email saying we are not eligible for funding. On the other side US and other countries are getting funding at the ideation stage. I guess we can't even go for crowdfunding. Started building MVP, but halfway through the hurdle and unable to resume the development due to limited resources.

A friend and I have identified a niche requirement for finance functions of listed Indian entities. We would need to build a tech platform which allows our clients to create some kind of a public web page, the contents of which would be managed and controlled by our back end. A SaaS / CRM solution. Since we come from core finance backgrounds with primitive tech knowledge, please can you guide on: - Would it be feasible to outsource the development of this software to an outside agency - What kind of employees would be need to hire once the platform is ready - they would need to troubleshoot, build on new features etc. - What would the cost of development be? We are looking to self fund this venture and achieve some scale before seeking funding if required. - Any resources to read up to get better idea of tech? I have zero idea of languages, codes, platforms etc. Thank you :)

I have a product idea that I want to build. It is not something super unique or innovative. A few products are already in the market to solve the use case but it's fairly simple to build and has a decent potential to reach 1 mil ARR. The market is not cluttered and the need is solid. My problem is that I am a career marketer and I don't want to boil the ocean by trying to build the product myself. As a remote employee for the past 3 years I have lost any chance to make a techie friend and whatever old contacts I had are either in better position or have started up already. I have enquired with a few remaining people but it was unsuccessful. My idea is continue with our day job unless we crack at least 3 customers and then go in full time. Is anyone interested? Can someone guide me a better place to find a cofounder?

Hey guys, I've validated a problem and would like to work on it with a potential tech co-founder. Plan: 1. Build the MVP (4-6 weeks) 2. Valiate with the customers (potential) 3. Gather the feedback 4. Raise money (already in talks with pre-seed investors) 5. Keep the ball rolling :) If any of you are interested, let me know, and we can have a private discussion (feel free to send me a DM). I'm happy to go through the problem and provide answers to any of your questions.

I made something two years back just out of curiosity (kind of like a prototype).. have given up on the idea at that time, thinking it won't work Today, scrolling on Instagram saw a reel where the same idea raised millions of dollars in shark tank US !! 💀 Is there a way to test the ideas for new entrepreneurs in the market ? Like any platform
