Titan Capital Launches ‘Future Indicorns’ to Back AI Startups in India

Early-stage venture capital firm Titan Capital has launched ‘Future Indicorns’ an initiative aimed at identifying and supporting AI startups addressing large-scale challenges in India.

The programme focuses on ventures developing AI-led solutions across sectors such as healthcare, manufacturing, energy, real estate, governance and data infrastructure.

As part of the initiative, the firm has invited applications from founders working on 10 broad themes. These include AI for data centre and energy management, AI-native SMB marketplaces, GovTech, healthcare delivery, manufacturing and research related to Indian diseases and genomics.

Additional areas of interest include AI applications in real estate, physical world data, sales enablement, and data sovereignty.

Titan Capital said the initiative is designed to back startups building solutions tailored to Indian needs, rather than replicating global models. The firm aims to identify companies that can address local challenges using artificial intelligence.

The launch builds on Titan Capital’s earlier ‘Indicorns’ initiative, introduced in September 2024, which highlighted profitable startups with revenues exceeding INR 100 crore.

Applications for the ‘Future Indicorns’ programme will remain open until June 15, 2026.
