Day 1–2

Assembly & first night

The cohort gathers. First meetups, icebreakers, and the founding night of stories.

Day 3–6

Into middle India

Long night journeys, station stops, and first conversations with the people and places the train takes us past.

Day 7–11

Immersion days

Where the yatra slows to look, not just move - visits, sit-downs, and working with the communities we meet.

Day 12–14

Build & connect

Co-founding hours, pitch nights, and the connections that turn into companies and collaborations.

Day 15

The long way home

The final car. Reflection, commitments, and the road back - different people, same train.
