Marwari Catalysts was founded in 2019 with one clear belief: talent has no pin code.
We saw brilliant ideas rising from smaller towns without the right support to take off. So, we built the bridge between raw ambition and real success.
To back entrepreneurs from non-metro cities with mentorship, startup funding in India, and a community that supports them through every stage.
A future where every founder, whether from a big city or a small village, has the tools, support, and platform to make a global mark.
The principles that guide everything we do.
Great ideas can come from anyone, anywhere, beyond cities, titles, or degrees.
We lead with honesty, delivering on every promise we make.
We pursue growth that positively impacts people and the planet.
We rise by lifting others through collaboration and shared goals.
We challenge norms, creating better solutions through curiosity and creativity.
Because great ideas don’t only come from boardrooms or billion-dollar campuses. They’re born in student dorms, shared PG rooms, village cybercafés, and chai shops where the next unicorn is quietly brewing.
Building the next big things from the most unexpected places.

Sushil Sharma’s journey isn’t out of a textbook; it’s real, raw, and relatable.
He dropped out of college. He failed at his first startup. He struggled, learned, tried again, and made it.
From those early setbacks to building a funded business, becoming an angel investor, and shaping startups across borders, Sushil’s story reflects every founder who dares to dream big, no matter where they start.
What makes him stand out? He never forgot where he came from.
Sushil believes innovation shouldn’t be limited to big cities or fancy offices. Talent exists everywhere, in small towns, student hostels, coffee shops, and co-working spaces. And it deserves a global stage.
That belief led to Marwari Catalysts, not just as an accelerator or investment firm, but as a global startup platform, born in India, connected to the world.
Today, Sushil is working with startups across India and beyond — mentoring founders, backing early-stage ideas, and creating bridges between local talent and global opportunity.
Whether it's a Founder in Jodhpur, a techie in Bengaluru, or an Investor in the Bay Area, he believes in giving every dream the chance to grow.
He isn’t just part of the ecosystem,
He’s helping shape the global one.
For Sushil, it’s not about where you come from.
It’s about where you’re going and who you take along with you.
