The Karnataka Government in an effort to boost the startup ecosystem has launched the “Elevate Program” to identify 100 of the most innovative startups in Karnataka, to elevate to them to next level of success.

The program will spend Rs. 400 crore to ‘elevate’ the selected startups by providing them funds and mentors to help them turn their ideas into successful businesses. Karnataka’s IT and BT Minister, Priyank Kharge unveiled the program along with the official website and logo for the flagship initiative on Wednesday.

The scheme is the brainchild of the startup cell, Karnataka Biotechnology and Information Technology Services (KBITS) and will help identify startups working in the field of IT, Electronic System Design Manufacturing, Animation Visual Gaming & Comics, Biotechnology, Pharmaceuticals, Agriculture, and Life Sciences.

Startups under this program will also be provided with access to idea validation, incubation facilities and in depth sessions for startups on accounting, legal and emerging technologies.

Speaking at the launch, the IT Minister said through Elevate they will provide startups with technical and business support based on their need along with funding. Till date, the startup cell has identified 46 startups and sanctioned ₹ 15.68 crores in the field of biotech, tourism and IT.

Startups from Mangaluru, Kalaburgi, Mysuru and Hubli will get the opportunity to pitch their ideas to the Elevate team in open houses that will be held by the State Government. Registration began on 4 July 2017 and will be open until 18 July 2017, for all participants across Karnataka.

Chief Minister Siddaramaiah said Elevate is one of the highlights of the work that we are doing to boost trade and business in Karnataka and the Government is happy to be inaugurating the program.

According to the IT Minister, venture capitalists have also been brought on board to help curate and fund startups, although at the initial stages the government will fund the startups to bring them to a point where it is investible for the VCs.

This program has been launched in partnership with the Deshpande Foundation, The Indus Entrepreneurs and others to empower startups and scale operations. The Government of Karnataka has taken tremendous steps to encourage the startup ecosystem. They announced a $ 1.4 million fund for women entrepreneurs in March this year. IT Minister Priyank Kharge has also allocated a $ 1.65 million fund for agritech startups in May and later announced a fund of $ 1.65 million for 26 selected startups in the biotechnology sector.

Polygon StartupStories

Sandeep Nailwal, co-founder of Polygon, has been appointed as the first CEO of the Polygon Foundation, marking a shift from decentralized governance to focused leadership. This change aims to provide clear direction and accelerate Polygon’s growth in the competitive blockchain space.

Under Nailwal’s leadership, Polygon will discontinue its zkEVM network in 2026 to concentrate on the Polygon PoS chain and AggLayer, a new cross-chain liquidity protocol. Significant upgrades to the Polygon PoS chain are planned, starting with the Bhilai upgrade in July 2025, to enhance transaction capacity and support large-scale financial applications.

Polygon enters this new phase with a strong financial position, enabling long-term development without fundraising pressures. While Nailwal leads the Foundation, Marc Boiron continues as CEO of Polygon Labs. This leadership restructuring aims to drive innovation and reinforce Polygon’s position in Ethereum scaling and the Web3 ecosystem.

Wow! Momo, the Kolkata-based quick-service restaurant (QSR) chain, has secured ₹85 crore (approximately $9.9 million) in debt funding from Stride Ventures, aiming to accelerate its omnichannel expansion and strengthen its presence across India. The company, which operates over 700 outlets in more than 70 cities, plans to utilize the funds to open additional dine-in restaurants, expand its packaged food (FMCG) vertical, and enhance its delivery and supply chain operations. This strategic move will also help refinance existing loans and fuel Wow! Momo’s push into new markets and product categories.

Founded in 2008, Wow! Momo has rapidly diversified its offerings, launching brands such as Wow! China, Wow! Chicken, and Wow! Kulfi, and recently entering the frozen foods segment with quick commerce and retail distribution. The company is targeting a footprint of over 1,500 stores across more than 100 cities within the next three years and aims to grow its FMCG business to ₹100 crore while ramping up its HORECA (Hotel, Restaurant, and Catering) segment. The leadership team views this debt infusion as pivotal for scaling new formats, driving innovation, and building brands that resonate with Indian consumers.

Stride Ventures, known for backing high-growth startups, emphasized Wow! Momo’s strong brand recall, robust business model, and relentless innovation as key reasons for their investment. With this funding, Wow! Momo is well-positioned to further solidify its status as a category-defining player in India’s QSR and FMCG sectors, while preparing for larger equity rounds and a potential IPO in the coming years.

How Brands Around India Adapted RCB’s IPL 2025 Win: A Masterclass in Real-Time Marketing

IPL StartupStories

The Indian Premier League (IPL) is not just a cricket tournament—it’s a cultural phenomenon that captures the imagination of millions. The 2025 season was especially significant as Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) ended their 18-year wait for an IPL trophy, sparking nationwide celebrations and a flurry of creative marketing from brands eager to ride the wave of emotion.

Seizing the Moment with Creative Campaigns

Brands across sectors quickly recognized the marketing goldmine that was RCB’s historic victory. Social media platforms became the battleground for witty, nostalgic, and heartfelt content. Voltas Beko, for example, cleverly played on the long wait with a pun: “This moment’s been cooking for 18 years,” featuring a microwave set to 18:00

. Fevicol used humor, captioning a visual of the trophy snuggled in bed with the iconic fan chant: “Ee sala cup chipak gaya ;)”. MG Motor referenced Bangalore’s infamous traffic, declaring, “The only time Bangalore enjoys slow traffic,” as a car displayed “Trophy On Board”.

From Jerseys to Delivery Trucks

Official kit partner Puma India launched a special jersey commemorating the win, emblazoned with RCB’s tagline, “Played Bold”. Quick commerce brands like BlinkIt and Swiggy joined in, with BlinkIt showing the cup being delivered to Bengaluru via a delivery partner and Swiggy featuring a GPS tracker with a delivery executive en route to deliver the trophy. Zomato kept it simple yet impactful with a post reading “EE Sala Cup Namdu,” echoing the fans’ rallying cry.

Emotional Storytelling and Viral Reach

Brands leveraged the emotional high of RCB’s win to connect with audiences. Lego India posted an animated Virat Kohli with the cup, highlighting loyalty and perseverance: “Some waited for years, some questioned loyalty, but greatness? That’s built brick by brick. Champions at last!” Google India, Coca Cola, boAt, and others added to the chorus, each with their own creative spin.

Conclusion

RCB’s IPL 2025 win became more than a sports story—it was a moment of national pride and a catalyst for innovative, real-time marketing. Brands that adapted quickly, using humor, nostalgia, and emotional storytelling, not only amplified their reach but also deepened their connection with fans across India. This approach highlights the power of tapping into trending moments to create memorable, shareable content.
