In 2019-2020, the total number of Indian unicorns grew to 24, with seven startups being added to the list. The Indian startup ecosystem continued to attract investor interest with almost $4.4 billion across of funding in 2019 (Jan to Sep). The Indian tech start-up ecosystem is in the midst of a decade of 10X growth (2014-2025) and by 2025, there is potential to have a cumulative industry valuation of ~$400 Billion and around ~100 unicorns.

European investors have the opportunity to connect with the young and most promising startup ecosystem by actively taking part in the E-pitching sessions, which are organized to facilitate contact between European investors and Indian startups amid the travel restrictions  due to the pandemic and strengthen collaboration between both sides. The first European Investor Connect pitch session is on the 27th of November 2020.
