The Startup Mahakumbh app is designed to benefit exhibitors, delegates, visitors with intuitive features. In the app, users can also bookmark key sessions, make notes, add social media profiles to ensure ease in connecting. They can also view the agenda and watch the sessions on the platform. To never lose track of all the attendees met during the three-day event, users can also seek permission to scan a designated unique QR code of other attendees, allowing them to make a localised database with contacts that can be exported to their phones. To further elevate networking opportunities, users can view the list of all attendees, schedule meetings with them and also chat with them on the application.
The mentoring module of the Startup Mahakumbh platform also extends an industry feature that empowers budding entrepreneurs to seek mentorship from industry veterans such as Alok Mittal, Executive Chairman, Indifi Technologies, Chirag Gupta, Founder, 4700 BC, Dinesh Agarwal, Founder & CEO, IndiaMART InterMESH Limited, Kiran Chandra Kalluri, Partner, Dallas Venture Capital. Attendees can book a session with their preferred mentors. Each user can book sessions with up to two mentors, with a limit of one slot per mentor.
