Bombay Connect, which was previously called the Bombay Hub, is a place to get together and foster your idea in a work space of people who are trying to do the same. It is partnered with UnLtd India.

The actual infrastructure includes a co-working office, a conference room and a terrace. The team also sets up networking events so you can grow your idea with the help of others. It's a chill space and social lab that gives the entrepreneur the resources to get his or her start up up and running. Like many hubs and collaborative work places, the idea is to cut costs and allow solo entrepreneurs to interact and get out of their homes.
