About Priyanka Ahuja
Trained in Marketing and Communications, I have a background in Journalism, Business and Marketing, particularly in the education and skills sectors. Over the years, I have been able to accumulate a diverse set of experiences by working with companies like Startup Tunnel, Adianta School for Leadership and Innovation, Edukart, Aspire, International School of Business and Media, Pearson (Indiacann), and TV Today Network. I have played an instrumental role in setting up Startup Tunnel, an early-stage acceleration program based out of Delhi. Something that just started as an in-house incubator for budding entrepreneurs, is a full-fledged accelerator with over 45+ incubated-accelerated startups as part of the portfolio. Over the last 9 years, I have assembled startup cohorts, mentored startups for Growth hacking alongside Go-to-Market strategies. I have had the opportunity to run several open innovation programs including, Yes Foundation, Sikkim Manipal University, HPE, UNDP, Government of Rajasthan, Vedanta Spark to name a few. I have also single-handedly led the conceptualization of the incubation-acceleration program, cultivated relationships with investors, mentors, ecosystem partners at large.
