I’m Nikunj Thakkar, the founder of UpSurge Ventures, where we help entrepreneurs transform their ideas into powerful products with fast, high-quality MVPs. We specialize in turning vision into reality through smart development and strategic validation.
Having built and exited startups myself, I know the pain points firsthand—limited budgets, tight timelines, and the constant pressure to validate your idea before scaling. That’s why at UpSurge Ventures, we’ve built a system that focuses on:
🔹 Rapid Prototyping & Full-Stack Development – We don’t just build; we iterate fast. From wireframes to working products, we deliver at startup speed.
🔹 Scalable Architecture – We design systems that grow with your user base, ensuring that your MVP isn’t just a throwaway prototype but a foundation to scale.
🔹 User-Centric Validation – We help you launch early, learn fast, and pivot quickly based on real-world feedback.
Why UpSurge Ventures?
We’re a team of ex-founders and seasoned techies who’ve been in the trenches. We understand the urgency of building the right product with the right features. We don’t just code; we collaborate, bringing strategic insights that go beyond tech.
Who Do We Work With?
❇️ First-time founders who need a reliable tech partner to bring their vision to life.
❇️ Established startups looking to pivot or add new product lines.
❇️ Corporate innovators aiming to test new ideas without disrupting their main business.
Our Philosophy:
We believe in building smart, launching fast, and validating in the real world. We focus on solving real problems rather than building bloated features. Your “small” startup isn’t a weakness; it’s your superpower—agility, focus, and speed are your competitive advantages.
A big shoutout to the Jatin Chaudhary for organizing this and Radhika Mohta and Sushil Kumar being such fantastic hosts.
