IndianVC, a decentralised venture community, has launched its platform, aiming to revolutionise the Indian startup ecosystem. By addressing key challenges in fundraising and hiring, IndianVC seeks to redefine the foundational "-1 to 0" journey of startups.
IndianVC, founded by a group of former and current venture capitalists, aims to become the ‘mini Y-Combinator’ of India. The platform offers an investor database, a VC job board, and various fundraising templates, catering to the specific needs of entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and engineers.
"Founders should focus on building their product, not mastering the funding ecosystem," says Pavithran Chidambaram, founder of IndianVC, "We've created a repository to save them time."
Akshay Kothari, COO of Notion, highlights IndianVC's role in addressing the unique challenges faced by Indian founders, offering essential support for the country's burgeoning startup ecosystem.
“IndianVCs fills an important gap in the Indian venture capital landscape,” says Kishore Ganji, Managing Partner at Astir Ventures.
Aastha, founder of Ayna, adds, “Finding the right VC is like finding a needle in a haystack, except the needle is constantly moving.”
“IndianVCs community is precisely what the Indian startup ecosystem requires,” says Rahul Agarwalla, Managing Partner of SenseAI Ventures. “It streamlines the process of finding the right investors and talent, making it an invaluable resource for first-time founders.”
