Emergent AI just scored $20 million from Lightspeed after starting out with a small seed round in September 2024. UnifyApps is also lining up more investment to fuel its growth.

In just the first seven months of 2025, Indian GenAI startups pulled in a record $524 million—showing how India's deep tech talent is making waves globally, even without massive US funding.
