Startup Thamizha,' a Tamil Startup reality show.
As per a TOI report, taking inspiration from globally renowned shows like Shark Tank, which have significantly contributed to raising awareness about the startup ecosystem at both the national and international levels, Startup Tamizha aims to replicate this success within the state.
This reality television show, 'Startup Thamizha,' is designed to connect carefully selected startups with active investors while simultaneously promoting awareness about startups throughout Tamil Nadu.
StartupTN has issued a public tender to appoint producers and creative teams responsible for the show's production. The formal launch of 'Startup Thamizha' is expected to take place on a leading television channel soon.
Further details, such as the panel of investors, the show's format, and the application process, will be disclosed at that time.
It has been revealed that the panel of investors will feature prominent angel investors and business executives from the state. Additionally, opportunities for investment will be made available to a broader audience beyond the investor panel.
Sivarajah Ramanathan, the mission director and CEO of StartupTN, told TOI, «Startup Thamizha aims to instigate a cultural shift in the minds of innovators, motivating them to become employers by leveraging available resources and inspiring both innovators and aspiring entrepreneurs to embrace risk-taking and overcome the fear of failure.»
He went on to say, «The show will also shed light on the contemporary investment opportunities accessible to potential investors who may not be aware of these novel avenues for investment.»
