Unchained Summit brings its India edition to Mumbai on the back half of Devcon week, and it is explicitly built for deal-flow rather than footfall: ~1,000 attendees, 300+ active investors and VCs, 50+ speakers, and a room that skews heavily to decision-makers rather than students. The draw for founders is the Unchained Pitch Challenge — open to protocols, DeFi projects, tokenised RWA and cross-chain tooling under five years old, at any funding stage; every applicant gets a written expert evaluation, finalists pitch live on stage, and winners leave with warm investor intros. Worth pairing with Devcon if you are raising for a crypto startup out of India and want the capital side of the week, not just the protocol side.
