Everything About the Bazaar
The festival, the format, the participation paths — answered.
Startup MahaBazaar 2027 is India's Grand Festival of Startups, Innovation & Entrepreneurship — a three-day national festival where startups, investors, innovators, technology and commerce converge. It is not a conference and not a trade fair; it is a bazaar of ideas, innovation and impact.
Startup MahaBazaar 2027 takes place from 29 to 31 January 2027, across three full days and celebratory evenings.
The festival is hosted at MSIT & MSI, New Delhi — transformed into a futuristic innovation bazaar with 10+ thematic pavilions.
Startups, founders, investors, venture capital, corporates, innovators, students, researchers, policy and governance leaders, creators, mentors, global delegations and business visitors — anyone who wants to be part of India's innovation story.
Startups, enterprises, R&D institutions, country delegations, states and ecosystem organisations can exhibit through startup pods, pavilions and special zones. Visit the Exhibition page for details and enquiries.
