About

Given the unprecedented adoption of digitisation in the post-COVID world, domestic technology talent, entrepreneurial mindset and remote selling becoming the norm, today Indian SaaS startups are poised to tap further into the opportunity in the global SaaS market. However, to do so, those in their early stages will need to understand how to build the right technology stack, build winning teams, raise capital, or which market to go after.

To enable early-stage SaaS startups to tap into this growth opportunity, Prime Venture Partners and Amazon Internet Services have come together to introduce SaaS Central.

The programme is open for startups that have raised less than $1 million in funding, have a tech co-founder or CTO and a business co-founder and have at least three paying customers.
