Ultimate Digits, Evolv Art, Quantlytica, Nexity Network, Allocate Back, GameLand, and Stake-n-Bake outshine the competition to emerge as the next wave of Graviton-backed startups. 
&nbsp; 
<a href="https://x.com/JoinGraviton">Graviton</a>, one of India’s leading web3-focused accelerators, has unveiled a brand new list of teams that have been accepted into the second edition of its coveted 16-week program. This much-awaited disclosure comes nearly a month after the syndicate-backed fund stopped accepting applications, and was preceded by a nationwide hunt for builders, including a 2-month national roadshow across New Delhi, Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kochi, and Bangalore. 
&nbsp; 
Last year, Graviton <a href="https://www.forbesindia.com/article/brand-connect/web3-investors-from-16-nations-converged-to-witness-these-6-gravitonbacked-indian-startups-make-their-pitch/87065/1">announced</a> its maiden portfolio of teams that were building for web3 infrastructure tools, DeFi, payments &amp; rewards, real-world asset tokenization, and GameFi. Their inclusion in the cohort translated into an average seed investment of $42,000 per team, alongside a carefully curated combination of 1:1 technical workshops with mentors in business, web3 tech fundamentals, security, marketing, sales, and fundraising. One unique advantage that the Graviton-backed crop of teams had, was that they received hands-on feedback &amp; training in terms of refining their fundraising efforts, directly from VCs who are a part of the Graviton capital network. This includes the Hashkey group (A leading force in Asia’s web3 investments), NGC Ventures, Moonrock Capital, and many others. 
&nbsp; 
A globally simulcast Demo Day &amp; a series of targeted outreach campaigns at the end of the program elevated the visibility of Graviton-backed startups, resulting in quick closures of the follow-up funding rounds for these teams. Notably, Fetch.xyz raised $1.5Mn in a pre-seed round led by Hashkey. The GameFi team in question was wholly acquired by a global player, and the other teams (Spydra, Zoth, etc) are on their way to completing &amp; announcing their respective venture funding rounds.&nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
“We were excited then, and we’re positively thrilled now”, quips Graviton CEO<a href="https://twitter.com/nikarpit_"> Arpit Nik</a>, who floated the idea of launching an India-focused accelerator during his time as a General Partner in a global web3 fund. “We’ve always believed in the potential of investing in and then grooming some of India’s strongest founders, and the results have perpetually yielded fascinating, high-quality products that make the Indian ecosystem proud”. He refers, of course, to the pedigree of founders such as Manish Tewari, Pritam Dutta, Mandar Ray, and many others who have graduated from the Graviton stable. 
&nbsp; 
“This year, the competition was way tougher, with global attention glued to bull market movements in the space. Newer teams, technology stacks and collaborations have emerged since we last went out scouting for projects. More than 500 applications came in, and the teams that have made the final cut, were subjected to extreme scrutiny. We look forward to the growth journey that lies ahead!” remarked <a href="https://techbullion.com/shomprakash-sinha-roy-the-most-recognised-face-in-indias-crypto-ecosystem/">Shomprakash Sinha Roy</a>, who runs point on brand storytelling, and personally met applying projects during the India Blockchain Week, and the subsequent national tour (#BlockchainYatra).&nbsp; 
&nbsp; 
“Having been closely associated with Team Graviton for their first cohort and also collaborating with them for the Demo day at India Blockchain Week, I can confidently say that they are the best partners for any early-stage Web3 project, particularly in India. They have an extremely diverse and rich group of mentors to help founders navigate the challenges that come with early-stage building. In addition, their vast network of partner VCs also helps these projects better prepare for their fundraising journey.” – Parth Chaturvedi (Investments Lead, Coinswitch Ventures). 
&nbsp; 
Coinswitch Ventures will continue to selectively review &amp; invest in teams accelerated via the Graviton cohort, subject to necessary internal due diligence on each project.&nbsp;
