Seed Advisors Pvt Ltd

In 2006, Bharati Jacob, Mahesh Murthy and Pravin Gandhi combined their early stage investment experience to start Seedfund. They were soon joined by Paula Mariwala and Sanjay Anandram.

Together, they set off to make a visible difference in backing early-stage companies across sectors. With “a little money and a lot of attention” Seedfund started plugging the gap in the ecosystem, by providing guidance, perspectives, ideas, and connections.

OUR CONTRIBUTION

“We have seeded the early stage ecosystem across diverse sectors in India. We have invested in healthcare, education, rural marketing, e-commerce, technology, and many more. Our companies have left their mark in these sectors, often created new ones altogether, and redefined the market paradigm for the Indian consumer.”
