"PhysicsWallah Launches $5 Million Startup School to Empower Aspiring Entrepreneurs"

PhysicsWallah (PW), a prominent edtech unicorn, has launched the PW School of Startups (SOS) with a $5 million fund to support 100 startups over the next five years. This initiative, under the PW Foundation, aims to nurture entrepreneurial skills by providing aspiring entrepreneurs with practical training, strategic mentorship, and access to capital.

PW SOS offers three tailored programs: Aarambh for beginners, Prarambh for those with some entrepreneurial experience, and Hopes Alive for seed-funded or bootstrapped startups. These programs focus on essential aspects such as business model development, branding, budgeting, and scaling to ensure long-term success.

Alakh Pandey, Founder and CEO of PW, highlighted the potential of startups emerging from Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities in driving India’s economic growth. He emphasized the need for guidance and a supportive community to help these entrepreneurs succeed.

In the coming year, PW SOS plans to enroll 1,000 aspiring entrepreneurs in Aarambh and 100 in Prarambh, offering them opportunities to refine their ideas and access mentorship from experienced founders.

Founded in 2020 and headquartered in Noida, PW has expanded beyond test preparation into various educational segments, including skilling, higher education, and physical schools. With initiatives like PW SOS, the firm aims to continue its mission of being a lifelong learning partner for students.
