Bengaluru-based watertech startup Uravu Labs uses solar energy and non-polluting chemical desiccants like Silica to adsorb water from the air, sterilise it, and prepare for consumption. Founded in 2019 by Pardeep Garg, Swapnil Shrivastav, Venkatesh R and Govinda Balaji, Uravu Labs is dedicated to building an ‘atmospheric water generator’ that runs on 100% renewable energy. The water-from-air concept is not new, though, as many startups already operate in the space. But unlike Uravu, most of them use refrigeration as a method to condense air in the atmosphere, which is an expensive process with high energy requirements. Uravu’s method which uses a desiccant is relatively less capital-intensive and energy-intensive and also requires much less maintenance. The desiccant used in the machine has a shelf life of around ten years, and the rest of the components are mostly conventional electronic components like fans and pipes. Read more

What did you do when you were 16? Goofed around, played, and joked? A child prodigy and two-time entrepreneur Krishna Maggo manages an online platform for startups to raise money. When his board exams were postponed to 2021, Krishna founded his first business and used the free time to launch "GrowwVenture," a platform for angel investing. He then concentrated on retail investors and built his second business, "Sateeq," which enables regular people to become investors by contributing as little as Rs. 5000 to startups across India. Sateeq uses an invitation-only method to enroll startups. Krishna's ten-person business goes through a three-step verification process before registering businesses. This entails a startup being scouted and verified by Sateeq investors, followed by a review of investment possibilities. The final step is to hire an outside company to perform a startup's due diligence. Sateeq has registered more than a dozen startups and added more than 5,000 investors to its network in less than a month since the platform's beta launch. Investors like Mumbai Angels, Ivy Capital, Shraddha Sharma, Vaibhav Vardhan, Kiran Mani, Deshpande Startups, and Shark Tank India have already supported these startups. Read more
