GSF Accelerator, launched in 2012 by former Reliance Entertainment president and GSF Superangels founder Rajesh Sawhney, has so far funded 50 startups.

“The startups’ focus ranges from manufacturing tech to vernacular content marketplaces, from AI-driven sales analytics to AI-based loan underwriting and contract abstraction in real time. These four startups have paying customers. Our global ecosystem of mentors, advisers and investors have helped these four startups over the last six months,” said Sawhney.
