Opportunities from Hatch for start-ups to pitch overseas
View(s):Hatch in collaboration with Draper Startup House is bringing the global TV Show “Meet the Drapers” to Sri Lanka. “If you are working on the next big idea in Tech don’t miss this opportunity! Email your pitch decks to hello@meetthedrapers.com by January 18, 2023,” Hatch said in a media release
This is a chance for local entrepreneurs to not only showcase their start-up in front of millions of viewers worldwide, but also the once in a lifetime opportunity to pitch their business to Silicon Valley investor, Tim Draper and stand the chance to win US$1 million in investment.
Earlier last year, Vikram Bharati, founder of Draper Startup House met with Jeevan Gnanam and Brindha Selvadurai-Gnanam, creators of Hatch, following which he expressed his confidence in Sri Lanka’s tremendous potential to transform itself from a troubled nation to a true start-up nation, commenting that the country’s growing entrepreneurship ecosystem presents the greatest opportunity in overcoming its hardships.
Hatch said it is on a mission to make innovation and entrepreneurship more accessible, sustainable, and inclusive to reflect the diversity seen in the world. Driven by the belief that entrepreneurs are the catalyst for economic development, collaboration drives innovation and that everyone, regardless of background should be given the opportunity to create a meaningful impact in the world; Hatch supports early-stage start-ups by providing them with access to capital, training tools, mentoring, market access, 60,000 sq ft. of award-winning co-working space, and an entire support system through its blended model of community creation, incubators, accelerators and a fund. Starting with just 28 start-ups, in four years, Hatch has supported over 500 start-ups. Of these, they have incubated and accelerated 37 per cent of them through programmes and 33 per cent of the founders are women-led or focused businesses.
Even in uncertain times, Hatch says it offers hope for budding Sri Lankan entrepreneurs to not just excel within the country but internationally as well.
