Nikhil Kamath, co-founder of Zerodha, has stepped up to the plate by launching WTFund for gaming. Let me take you through the details of what exactly this is, the cause, and how to apply for it if you are one of the interested ones.
WTFund is a great opportunity for budding and enthusiastic developers to build great games
Simply put, WTFund is a funding platform dedicated to supporting entrepreneurs in the gaming industry, helping them turn their innovative ideas into reality. The idea behind the WTFund is the “intriguing evolution of the gaming landscape over time”, as per Nikhil Kamath. In the WTF Podcast on YouTube, he pitched this idea at the end of Episode 17. Previously, this fund was also opened for creators.
The process to get the funding is simple, just fill out the form by giving the necessary details asked in it.
