Yes, Prologue is an initiative of Earlyseed Ventures, bringing real ecosystem networks and hands-on experience to the services offered.

The Investment banking arm of Earlyseed Ventures is distinct from Prologue. It depends upon the idea, business model and revenue model of the company. Doing the prefunding activities from Prologue does not automatically guarantee funding. However, you get the opportunity to become part of a community of your particular sector and there are many advantages associated with the same.

Once you are part of the community, you get invited to periodical events held in the relevant sectors of our community members. You will get the opportunity to meet industry leaders, investors and mentors. These are closed door events and invites are given only to community members. Online masterclasses which shall be organised in various aspects of entrepreneurship and investing will also be of immense help to you.

The Prologue Community is an evolving ecosystem of early stage entrepreneurs who are dedicated to refining their business from a strategic point of view before they move on to raising funds. To become a part of the community, we recommend availing one of our Pre-Funding Service Packages or signing up for any Education Programme to ensure you are well-aligned with the various facets of serious entrepreneurship.

You can reach out to us at info@earlyseedventures.com or use the contact form on our website. We'll discuss your needs and recommend the best service package for your startup stage.

We offer mentorship with industry leaders from your particular sector. These are usually paid on an hourly basis in order to respect the time of these veteran leaders.
