In late September 2026 I documented the deep‑tech Residency Bangalore cohort, noting LOI timing, investment checklists, founder experiences, cohort composition, demo‑day insights, and GTM takeaways.
LOI relevance window: 6-10 months
Dilution baseline: 10-15%
Founders selected: 7
Weekly demo schedule: founders present progress each week to senior investors and ecosystem members for realtime feedback.
Effective GTM method: ground‑level sales ops
In early September 2026 I posted a series of X updates about the @residencyBLR deep‑tech cohort, my personal health experiment, and community‑building goals. I share why the residency felt like the place I wanted for myself, highlight a resident’s $200k pre‑launch revenue, announce the first fully funded deep‑tech cohort, and note that I lost 8 kg on a very low‑calorie high‑fiber diet.
One resident generated $200k in revenue solely from his pre‑launch waitlist.
I lost 8kg in about 3 months without any exercise or 10k steps.
My daily calorie intake was between 900 and 1100 calories.
Our first fully funded deep‑tech cohort started on 2026-09-10.
Cohort #9 completed orientation on 2026-09-14.
