The Fellowship Program is designed for future leaders in the venture capital and entrepreneurial ecosystem.
The program is rooted in our belief that nurturing and developing talent is a cornerstone of building a long-term institution. Entrepreneurship is about fearless reimagination of the world, and the Fellowship is our endeavor to bring together a group of young and passionate minds and provide them the unique opportunity to get a first-hand experience of the start-up ecosystem.
With this philosophy in mind, we are launching Fellowship 3.0.

PROGRAM STRUCTURE
The Fellowship is a highly selective paid program designed with the apprenticeship model and multidisciplinary learning at its core. The program operates on a 1+1 year model. While we recommend completing 2 years to get the most out of the program, we understand that some of you may want to leave at the end of the first year to pursue your individual learning journey. At the end of year one, the program provides for this transition based on fitment and interest. At the end of the program, Kalaari will provide extensive support to help you pursue your career or educational aspiration through strong references and recommendations.
The program combines structured mentorship with hands-on experience and offers tremendous opportunity to learn about venture capital and amplifies insights and understanding of the Indian startup ecosystem.
The program is a structured experience where fellows rotate across projects while focusing on one or more of the following areas depending on their skills and interests.
Respecting your time and effort, we have designed our Fellowship selection process by stages. The process is designed to provide you transparency and clarity of timelines. At each stage, the evaluation process deepens.
The applications will be accepted in two cycles
Cycle 1 deadline – 30th Sept 2020
Cycle 2 deadline – 30th Oct 2020
We encourage you to apply in the first cycle. The interview process will happen on a rolling basis.
The program will commence in Jan 2021.
