New Delhi, October 7, 2025: The I-Hub Foundation for Cobotics (IHFC), the Technology Innovation Hub of IIT Delhi, has announced the launch of the second edition of its flagship initiative, ‘Pitch Perfect 2.0’ — a national startup incubation and acceleration program designed to empower emerging deep-tech entrepreneurs across India.
Following the success of its first edition, Pitch Perfect 2.0 will expand its reach with events across three major innovation hubs — Bengaluru (IIT Alumni Centre) on November 10, Mumbai (IIM Mumbai) on November 12, and Delhi (R&I Park, IIT Delhi) on November 17.
This year’s edition is being organized in collaboration with Easy Knowledge, Seafund, Fluid Ventures, and Google for Startups, bringing together some of India’s leading investors, mentors, and ecosystem partners under one platform. The initiative aims to bridge the gap between groundbreaking ideas and market-ready solutions by offering startups a rare opportunity to pitch directly to top venture capitalists and corporate leaders.
Startups participating in Pitch Perfect 2.0 will receive incubation support of up to ₹1 crore and acceleration support of up to ₹5 crores. The program will also provide them with access to curated investor connections, mentorship from industry experts, networking opportunities with peers and investors, and insights into developing robust growth strategies.
Speaking about the initiative, Mr. Ashutosh Dutt Sharma, CEO of IHFC, said, “Pitch Perfect 2.0 is more than an event; it’s a movement empowering entrepreneurs to turn bold, disruptive, deep-tech ideas into impactful businesses. With the combined strength of IHFC and its partners, this initiative is setting new standards in nurturing India’s next wave of unicorns. Join the movement. Dream. Pitch. Grow. Let your startup story begin here.”
Through Pitch Perfect 2.0, IHFC aims to strengthen India’s deep-tech startup ecosystem and contribute to the country’s growing innovation landscape. The initiative is expected to become a key driver in fostering entrepreneurship, research commercialization, and industry-academia collaboration.
