In 2013, I started LetsVenture with one belief — that raising your first cheque shouldn’t be the hardest part of building a company.
Back then, the idea of founders and investors meeting online felt almost radical. We didn’t have Angel AIFs. We didn’t have standard term sheets. We didn’t have a real community. We built it all — one cheque, one founder, one investor at a time.
In those early years, what mattered most was trust. Founders trusted us with their dreams. Investors trusted us with their capital. That trust is what got investors joining our AIF from over 60 countries. It’s what brought family offices to back our growth-stage founders. It’s what kept us going through cycles, noise, and distractions. In 2018, we became a regulated entity with SEBI’s approval for the LetsVenture Angel AIF.
Over the years, as a founder, I’ve seen my share of challenges — co-founder exits, partnerships that didn’t last, and my own search for what could feel meaningful next. There have been days when we didn’t have all the answers. But not once did I wish I’d chosen a different path. Looking back now, it almost feels like LetsVenture was meant to be.
Twelve years on, I believe we’ve played a small but important part in shaping India’s private market ecosystem. But the future needs more.
So why change now?
Because the ecosystem has changed — and we have too.
Today, capital is everywhere. A founder raising a seed round now has options we could only dream of in 2013. What they don’t always have is clarity. They want faster answers, better structures, sharper tools — real value beyond the cheque.
And investors? They want more too — visibility, trust, and a platform that helps them do more with less friction.
We can’t solve this with a single product anymore. We need an architecture. A system. A brand that lets us grow into what’s next.
LVX is our next chapter
LVX is the new avatar of everything LetsVenture stands for — brought together under one brand. We keep it simple for everyone who believes in us and builds with us.
- LV keeps us anchored to our roots — the trust we built and the lessons we learned.
- X is everything we’re adding — new lines, new products, new ways to help founders and investors grow together.
LVX start stays true to our first promise — backing early founders.
LVX grow powers scale — growth rounds, alternate capital, larger cheques.
LVX school is my personal bet — knowledge, shared freely. Because no founder or investor should have to learn everything the hard way. We’re starting LVX School with investor education, to help people understand risk better and look beyond the hype we see today.
India@2047 — why this matters
I often think about this: what does it mean to build something that outlives us? India is on its way to being a $10T economy. We talk about India@2047 because this is not about the next quarter or the next year — it’s about creating trust and value that compound for decades.
If the public markets have an ecosystem, the private markets need one too. That’s what LVX is for — to make this space simple, fair, and worth building in.
To everyone who’s been part of this journey so far — thank you.
