How the funding is evidenced

We hold no licensed funding feed, so "funded" here is an evidence trail rather than a round history. These classes are kept apart because they are not remotely the same claim.

  • Named in an incubator portfolio 2
  • Reported to a state startup scheme 1
  • Self-declared on the government form, unverified 188
  • Registered with a state startup scheme not evidence of funding 541

Questions people ask

How many funded startups are there in Kozhikode?

189 of Kozhikode's 1,519 registered companies (12.4%) carry a funding signal of some kind in our 2026-08 snapshot. "Some kind" is doing real work in that sentence: 2 are named in an incubator portfolio, 1 are reported to a state startup scheme, 188 are self-declared on the government form, unverified. We hold no licensed funding feed, so this is an evidence trail and not a round history.

What does "on a state scheme" mean on this map?

541 companies in Kozhikode are registered with a state startup scheme. That is a government-recorded fact and it is not evidence that anyone funded them: a scheme registration says a state department has them on file, nothing more. They appear on this map because they are evidenced, placed, publishable companies, and they are counted separately from the 189 carrying a funding signal.

Is every dot on this map one company?

Yes, but not every dot is one address. 682 companies are drawn here, one marker each. Where several share a coordinate the marker carries the count and opens the list, which happens often because most of the register is geocoded to a district centroid rather than to a street. The panel says which resolution it is showing you.

Does a funding signal mean the company is still trading?

No. Registration is not an operating signal. A large share of registered startups are dormant, and we have no way to tell you which. A funding signal is evidence that money was raised at some point, or that the company said so on a government form. It is not a statement about today. How we counted.
