These mentors share their knowledge, offer advice, and help startups navigate the challenges they may face in building and scaling their ventures.

It organizes events, pitch competitions, and networking sessions to foster collaboration, learning, and partnership building.

Funding Assistance: Many startup cells assist student startups in accessing funding and investment opportunities. They provide information about grants, funding competitions, and connect startups with potential investors or venture capital firms. They may also have their own seed funding or accelerator programs to financially support promising ventures.

Industry Partnerships: Startup cells establish partnerships with industry organizations, corporations, and local businesses to create opportunities for students to gain real-world experience and exposure. These collaborations can lead to internships, sponsorships, research projects, or even partnerships between startups and established companies.
