India can build next cybersecurity giants: Accel’s Prayank Swaroop

India is in the early innings of a cybersecurity breakout, and this moment could define the next generation of global security companies, according to Prayank Swaroop, partner at Accel.

Speaking to PTI at Accel’s Cybersecurity Summit in Bengaluru, Swaroop issued a clear call to action for Indian founders.

“India has over 1,400 cybersecurity startups, but only 235 have been funded, and just six have gone public. We’re barely scratching the surface,” he said.
