Since its launch on Android, the audio chatroom has brought in over 4 million users and has been increasing its focus on India as Android is the most popular OS in the region. The ‘Creator First’ programme was initially launched in the US back in March, earlier this year. Now, the company has brought this funding to India for selected programmes from Indian creators specifically.

This will help the Indian creators to help spread their ideas and creativity to a broader audience. Furthermore, the fund has also be been specifically tailored for the unique needs of the Indian audience, as per the company. At the moment, the application for participating in the programme is currently open and will be reviewed on a rolling basis, with the first window closing on 16th July 2021.

The Clubhouse Head of International Aarthi Ramamurthy added in an official blogpost, “By participating in Clubhouse Creator First in India, we will help you with production and creative development, help you promote your show, and provide financial support via matching you with brands or a monthly stipend.” For those unaware, this funding offers users in the US a stipend of at least 5,000 US Dollars per month.

The company has assured that it would also offer stipends in India, although, the exact details and amount has yet to be revealed. Aarthi further added that “n India, over the last few weeks, we’ve seen rooms on cricket, on music (including really fun Antakshari rooms!), rooms on gaming and contests, rooms on religion and prayer, and so much more. We are so excited to see what creators from across India will bring to the table.”
