Current status

Peak XV's page still promotes the fellowship and a general FAQ says Spark continues, but no current cohort or window is shown.

Who can apply

  • For female founders.
  • Building in tech.
  • In the early stages of the startup journey.

How to apply

  1. 1Peak XV's page shows no form or application dates.
  2. 2Ask through contactus@peakxv.com, the general contact it lists.

The catch

Confirm that an intake is running before relying on this. The page gives few terms, so ask Peak XV directly about country rules and grant conditions.

We read this on the official page on 4 November 2026. Rules and dates change, so confirm there before you apply. Founders Wing is not connected to this scheme, does not help with applications and never charges for access to it.
