An intense 5-week virtual programme accelerating the growth journeys of SaaS startups
Indian has seen an exponential increase in the number of SaaS-based businesses and startups, over the last few years. Healthcare, education, finance, government services — the list of sectors that depend on SaaS products is endless.
SaaS Central, an intensive five-week online programme is the brainchild of Prime Venture Partners and Amazon Internet Services. Designed specifically to encourage Indian startups that are looking to scale for the global market, this programme will focus on SaaS architecture, product management, and go-to-market and industry connect. Mentors and experts in the startup ecosystem will guide the selected startups and help them accelerate their growth journey.
“SaaS Central has come at the right time for us, where we at Stackby are looking to scale and optimise our product journey. The expert-led curated content has been really practical for us. There are a lot of takeaways and we recommend SaaS startups to apply for the programme and accelerate their growth journey. Moreover, a small cohort also meant great relationships with fellow founders and both Prime VP and AWS teams that we’ll continue to cherish,” says Rachit Khator, CEO, Stackby.
"Working directly with entrepreneurs we understand what it takes to build and sustain a SaaS company. Our experience and learnings, all go into our mentoring and guidance for SaaS Central startups. From product pricing, building diverse teams that consist of engineering, products, sales, and HR, to raising finances, our training will cover all aspects of sustaining a startup. Combining this with AWS SaaS Factory's Go-To-Market access and SaaS tech knowledge makes the programme useful and relevant for early-stage SaaS businesses." - Amit Somani, Managing Partner Prime Venture Partners
