The Morpheus – India Startup Incubator

Morpheus

We are a gang of serial entrepreneurs and around 40 startup founders and growing. We believe that India’s startups are coming of age and will have a significant impact on economy in 5 years from now. Via Morpheus we are trying to make a small contribution towards “India’s startup revolution”. We engage with startups in the most crucial phase of their existence, the first 12-18 months, the phase that is also known as valley of death. Morpheus runs a Business Acceleration Program (BAP) for talented, progressive and young startups designed to guide startups through this treacherous phase. During this phase we work with you as a limited co-founder who is experienced and well connected. We are not shy about getting into the nitty gritty and during a typical day we would have edited a critical business proposal, screened resumes, outlined a product roadmap, made vital introductions and the list goes on.

Our main value comes from:

  • Working with you as a limited co-founder who is experienced and well connected
  • Mentoring and hands on participation across different functions like product design, technology, operations, marketing, sales, fund raising, team building, finance etc
  • Learning gained from the experience of working with our portfolio of startups and watching them grow, falter and grow
  • Access to Morpheus’s existing (and growing) business relationships and contacts in India, Silicon valley and other parts of the world
  • Access to community of ever growing Morpheus’s portfolio entrepreneurs (40 as of now)
  • And our passion, love and commitment to early stage startups!

If you are a start-up wanting to know more, get in touch with us here. We promise you some real fun.

This is an interesting incubator in India that may be a good model that might work in HK as well.

    I’m very interested in what I suppose you might call alternative incubator models that are more viable in specific markets, such as Asia. I think HK is a prime location for something like this, and am interested in introducing some sort of active incubator here.
