Sequoia Capital India has announced its fifth cohort of 23 startups, across India and Southeast Asia. The startups have raised a total of $55 million from Surge and co-investors. The programme, which kicks off on June 30, includes 10 women founders, the largest in a cohort since Surge first started two years ago in March 2019.
In a statement, Sequoia Capital India said the Surge community now has 203 founders from 91 startups building companies across more than 15 sectors. Close to 50 percent of the companies from the first three cohorts have raised Series A funding.
