Kicked off an exciting initiative today - Breakfast with Founders! ☕️ This program brings together our team and founders from our portfolio companies facing similar challenges and opportunities. Today's session focused on the nuances of cross-border e-commerce. We were joined by: Tanuj Gangwani from Geniemode - B2B cross-border platform for fashion and furniture Aayush Anand, Angad Arora, & Vaibhav Kapur from ShipGlobal.in - cross-border logistics for e-commerce merchants Devansh Sharma from Mirana Toys - electronic and app-enabled toys for domestic and international markets Shobhit Jain from Elchemy - B2B cross-border platform for specialty chemicals The discussion was very insightful. The founders shared their experiences around scaling up, fund-raising, actual uptick of China + 1 buying from customers and showcased the tech each of them has built (it is amazing how the right tech can help scale efficiently in B2B and build moats with buyers and suppliers). Looking forward to the next one, as we plan to make it a regular part of our calendars!

We at Info Edge Ventures are proud to announce our follow-on investment in Inprime Finserv! InPrime has raised USD 3M in a round led by Matrix Partners India which also saw participation from Titan Capital, Kettleborough VC, and us. We invested in Rajat, Manish, and Sneh back when inPrime was just an idea on paper and couldn't be happier with the way they have been able to execute so much so swiftly. In the last 10 months, InPrime has successfully applied for and received an NBFC license from RBI, organized a smart & efficient team across tech, underwriting, collections and customer support verticals, and above all started solving the problem of lack of formal credit for the informal sector one loan at a time. “The fast yet structured execution over the last one year is a testament to the experience the founding team possess and further strengthens our belief in the team’s ability to achieve great success in the future while being steady-handed and compliant” - Chinmaya Sharma, Partner Infoedge Ventures.
