BACKING
BREAKTHROUGH
INNOVATIONS
FROM INDIA

We back fearless entrepreneurs building tech innovation-led companies of consequence from india.

OUR
BELIEF

We believe India, that is Bharat, and its transformational entrepreneurs are producing globally competitive and disruptive solutions for some of the toughest challenges. Their ventures can be game-changers not only in the Indian context - but emerge as dominant leaders globally.

Through our early-stage capital, unparalleled networks, strategic insights and operational hand-holding, we can significantly de-risk the process of conversion of these ideas into companies of consequence.

OUR
APPROACH

We realize the need for patience, proverbial valley-of-death financing, market development support and access to networks for building deep-innovation driven ventures.

We invest early in the life of a company at seed or Series A stage and remain deeply engaged throughout the lifetime of the company.

OUR
GENESIS

We are built upon a decade of early investing and startup support experience at CIIE.CO and our founding team - with seed support from Tata Trusts. We are a part of CIIE.CO's innovation continuum and operate as an autonomous and focussed initiative - guided by our Board and Investment Team. We are neither controlled by the Government of India nor by IIM Ahmedabad and have no political affiliations.

OUR
NAME

BHARAT in our name draws inspiration from the alternative official name of India. Our name is a tribute to Bharat's innovators who have done pioneering work that forms the foundation of various disciplines like computing, trigonometry, surgery, astronomy, communications, and physics, among others. Coincidentally, we also found the name to be an apt acronym for our mission, that of building "Breakthrough Healthcare, Agriculture, Renewables and Advanced Technology" innovations from India.
