Accel founding partner Prashanth Prakash predicts a significant shift in Indian venture capital allocation, with deep technology investments set to triple their share from 10-15% to 25-30% within the next 2-3 years. Speaking at the Bengaluru Tech Summit 2025, Prakash noted that investors are increasingly favoring deeptech ventures due to strong intellectual property protection and complex engineering, positioning them to rival consumer tech and fintech in investor interest. Key growth areas include semiconductors, EV supply chains, space technology, and precision manufacturing.
