Six early-stage Indian startups have received investments from Accel and Prosus through their Atoms X program.
The chosen startups work in a variety of industries, such as brain-computer interface technologies, elder fitness, cancer diagnostics, spacetech, and air purification.
Prosus will match Accel’s investment in every startup as part of the partnership. Startups can obtain up to $2 million in total funding from investors with check sizes ranging from $200,000 to $1 million.
From more than 2,000 applications, the cohort was chosen. Praan, which develops air quality infrastructure systems; QOSMIC, which specializes in satellite communication; Dognosis, which uses canine-based diagnostics to detect cancer non-invasively; and Ethereal Exploration Guild, which creates reusable orbital launch vehicles, are among the startups supported by the program.
The project is a component of Accel and Prosus’ Atoms X program, which was established in 2025 to assist early-stage startups developing in fields like advanced manufacturing, artificial intelligence, and energy transition.
In addition to funding, the program will give founders access to international networks and mentorship to help with long-term scaling.
