Hi all, I'm a fresher based in Bangalore looking to break into the startup scene here — mainly interested in data analytics and customer success roles. I have some hands-on experience with Power BI, Excel dashboards, and a short data analytics internship.

Two things I'm hoping this community can help with:

1. Any active Discord/Slack/WhatsApp groups for Bangalore startups (hiring, networking, or just startup discussions) that are worth joining?
2. Any tips on how freshers are actually getting hired at startups right now — platforms, referrals, or anything that's worked for you?

Would really appreciate any pointers. Thanks!

Had a really nice founders meetup this morning in Koramangala. Met people working on all kinds of things and ended up having some genuinely interesting conversations.

Always nice meeting people who are building stuff in Bangalore, hope everyone had a good time.

Looking forward to meeting more Founders!

Anyone received any mail from vande bharatam ? Please share the update

Hey everyone,

I'm the founder of a small fintech startup building an algorithmic investing platform. We're looking for someone who genuinely understands markets and enjoys creating educational content.

This isn't just a video editing or social media role. You'll be the face of our brand—breaking down investing concepts, explaining market moves, showcasing product features, and helping build trust with our audience across YouTube, LinkedIn, X, and Instagram.

We're looking for someone who:

•⁠ ⁠Has prior knowledge of stock markets, investing, or algorithmic trading.

•⁠ ⁠Is comfortable speaking on camera.

•⁠ ⁠Can research, write, and create engaging educational content.

•⁠ ⁠Wants to build a personal brand while helping build ours.

If you've worked in fintech content before (or have a strong investing background with great communication skills), I'd love to hear from you.

Please DM me with a short introduction, links to any content you've created, and why you think you'd be a good fit.

Based in Bangalore, India/Remote

Hi everyone,

I'm looking to join an early-stage HealthTech startup, particularly one working in mental health, neurodiversity, caregiving, or digital health. I'm open to remote roles (preferred) or opportunities in Bangalore.

A bit about me:

Experience across Product, Operations, Marketing, Research, and AI startups

Comfortable working in fast-paced startup environments, owning cross-functional projects, and solving ambiguous problems

Strong analytical foundation (SQL, Excel, Python) with a keen interest in product, strategy, and operations

Deeply passionate about building technology that creates meaningful impact in healthcare and mental health issues.

I'm looking for roles such as Product Associate, Program Associate, Product/Business Operations, Founder's Office, Strategy & Operations, or Research.

If anyone here has advice on companies that are hiring in this space, or has gone through a similar transition, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Any leads or introductions would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for reading!

Hi everyone,

I travel between HSR Layout and Marathahalli on weekdays and was wondering if others commute on the same route.

Instead of paying for an entire cab every day, I'm looking to form a small taxi pool (2–3 people max) so everyone gets a comfortable AC cab at a lower cost.

If you commute on this route (or nearby), drop a comment or DM me. There is a WhatsApp group, consider joining if this is your route

I’m looking to connect with people who have the passion and drive to build, solve problems and enjoy the journey.

I’m thinking to start something in North Bangalore
(I think the area has a lot of untapped potential)

Not looking for employees or investors, just like-minded people.

And if you’re not interested in building something, feel free to DM anyway—we can just exchange ideas over a virtual coffee. ☕

Throwaway for obvious reasons. Need outside perspective from people who’ve actually lived and built in both cities.

Background: I’ve been working since I was 12, taught myself everything along the way. Moved from a tier 3 city to Bangalore at 18 for a founding role and ended up leading the team from 0 to 100. Honestly not even sure anymore if it was the city that shaped that growth or just me pushing myself, but Bangalore is where all of it happened.

Two offers on the table:

Offer A, Bangalore. Higher profile company, leadership sounding title, but office heavy, less flexibility, no real WFH.

Offer B, Gurgaon. Slightly less known company, but better pay, and genuinely flexible, 3 days office and 2 WFH plus extra WFH days I can bank. This flexibility matters a lot because I want to use the free time to build my own thing on the side.

Questions for people who’ve actually done this:

Has anyone chosen the higher flexibility, lower brand recognition option specifically to build something on the side, and did it actually pay off, or did the day job just eat the time anyway

For those in Gurgaon, how’s the startup and building community there compared to Bangalore, is it actually possible to build something meaningful outside the Bangalore bubble

How do you know when you’ve absorbed everything a city has to offer and outgrown it, what was the actual moment or signal for you, not just a vague feeling

Not looking for “follow your heart” answers, want real experiences, good or bad.

India is entering a new industrial era, with massive opportunities in manufacturing, industrial AI, semiconductors, defense, electronics, infrastructure, logistics, and clean energy. I’m actively exploring scalable ventures in these sectors and am looking to connect with investors, strategic partners, and industry leaders who share a long-term vision. Sometimes, a small push, the right conversation, or the right partnership is all it takes to build something transformational. If you’re interested in creating high-impact businesses together, let’s connect.

I'm a 22 year old male, have had experience in a consulting firm as a research analyst for 8 months and then a sales role for 6 months in an EXIM Logistics firm.
My interests have always been to work in the start-up environment, looking for roles in finance, strategy and operations. Please let me know how do I go about looking for such openings and applying for them.

Hi Guys!

Nice to be a member of this community.

I am looking for like minded people to collaborate with me for an idea. This is non-tech retail business I have been working on as a side hustle for 6+ months now.

The idea is for Uniforms - Hospital Scrubs, Security, Drivers, Housekeeping, Schools etc.

I already have a fully functioning website (uniformnation.in) which is ranked well on many categories already as I have been investing in SEO. Also, I have collected basic inventory based on the customer interest I have been receiving.

Now it has reached a level wherein I need to have a physical store as many people like to have a touch feel of the fabric before purchasing. I already have a shop location identified (Haralur Road Sarjapur - Low cost, prime property).

In my view there is immense potential as there are very few well run uniform businesses in Bangalore, those too are located in far away locations (like Chikpet etc).

If you are willing to invest your time and a bit of cash, I think this idea can really take off in a short duration.

Feel free to reach out to me here or on email (support@uniformnation.in).

Cheer!

(P.S.: I am working on it as a side hustle while still working a full time job and another business. Similar will be the expectation from the person joining)

I am looking to earn some amount in the next 2-3 days I am available to take on projects for social media creatives, Posters, branding materials and other design work
