Karnataka Acceleration Network (KAN) — Cohort 2

Offers mentorship, infrastructure and investor access to Karnataka growth-stage startups.

Selected startups join a six-month structured program covering business strategy, market validation, customer acquisition and investment readiness, run by one of the accelerator partners. Cohort 2 ran from February to October 2026 and selected 56 startups out of 293 applications, with a demo day in front of investors at the end. KAN itself does not pay cash to startups; support is mentorship, work

Each grant below is a distinct funding opportunity with its own eligibility, scope, and deliverables.
