Shri. Ravi Sharma, President and Chief Volunteer of the IIT Alumni Council, said,

“We are very happy to join hands with India’s largest and oldest stock exchange. The BSE signs platform has been helping several firms list and raise capital over the years. To enhance the efficiency of listing process and also to increase access to pool of investors for start ups , IIT Alumni Council proposes to use AI and other automation tools to reduce time, cost and efforts involved in listing process. Further we shall encourage our associated and volunteer managed funds to underwrite, act as anchor investors as well as market makers for these IPOs. The entry of big ticket investors like Mega Fund into the startup listing space will lead to a paradigm change in the Startup ecosystem and their ability to access capital .

Commenting on the association, Shri. Ashishkumar Chauhan, MD & CEO, BSE, said, “BSE has always been in the forefront helping SMEs and Startups list on the exchange and raise capital. This partnership will enable a complete end to end ecosystem for the proposed social stock exchange.
