| | | | | | | | Hi Guest,
July marked a pivotal moment in India’s DeepTech journey. The launch of the government’s ₹10,000 crore DeepTech stimulus channeled through Startup India, MeitY Startup Hub, and IIT Madras, underpining the new #100DesiDeepTechs initiative. More than a headline, this initiative is a signal: India is building the building blocks of policy, capital, and mentorship for transformative technology to thrive.
Why does this matter? Because solving hard problems, whether in quantum computing, green hydrogen, or aerospace requires not just bold founders, but also patient capital, regulatory clarity, and long-term thinking. The initiative brings all of that together by pairing funding with structured policy engagement and a national platform for 100 high-potential DeepTech startups.
At Java Capital, this is the inflection we’ve been preparing for. We’ve long believed that India’s boldest bets will come not from incremental plays, but from scientific and technical leaps. And our portfolio reflects this conviction: AgniKul Cosmos hosted NSA Shri. Ajit Doval at Rocket Factory-1, a first-of-its-kind 3D-printed rocket facility. ePlane Company welcomed him to witness India’s advances in electric aviation. Across our portfolio, DeepTech is moving from lab to market faster than ever.
Watch our new highlight reel to see the future being built—by rockets, robots, and resilient founders:
