Frequently Asked Questions

We are looking for early-stage women founders looking to boost their fundraising skills and scale their businesses for growth and impact. 

This is a 40-hour program over a 3-month period. Ideally you will need 4 – 5 hours per week. Some of this will be self-paced preparation, while the remaining will be cohort-based online live masterclasses and speaker sessions, coaching sessions as well as an in-person retreat.  

 

Our curriculum and learning journey are designed to consist of: 

 

  • Online masterclasses featuring expert faculty 
  • Online fireside chats with industry leaders 
  • Personalized one-on-one coaching sessions and a Clifton strength-finder test 
  • An immersive in-person retreat 
  • A series of mock pitch-offs   
  • Continuous drip-fed content 

To apply, please submit the application form which requires you to fill in details about yourself. You’re also expected to submit a short pitch deck on the business idea of your start-up. 

Our admission panel will review the applications and revert with a decision. The application deadline is 29th May 2023 

The program commences mid-June. We will start engaging with the shortlisted participants once they have accepted the offer and made the payment.

The program fee is INR 2,45,000 plus 18% GST.  

With this program, CXXO and Harappa want to do their bit towards building an equitable and inclusive startup ecosystem. If you are a woman with a great idea, driven to scale your business this can be your launchpad.  Our admission decisions will be blind, so tell us how you want to be supported. 

If you are an Indian woman entrepreneur, you are welcome to apply to our program even if your company is registered abroad. Our program is focused on supporting and empowering women entrepreneurs in India, regardless of where their company is registered. However, please note that priority will be given to applicants who are based in India and have a strong connection to the local startup ecosystem.

However, we also recognize the value of in-person connections and collaboration, which is why we plan to have an in-person retreat during the course of the program.
