Hear from our founders

At a time when space tech was still quite an unconventional sector to bet on, Manish Singhal and his team were able to see the true potential behind what we were building. In fact, a variant of the rocket engine that we successfully tested right after pi Ventures invested in us was the one that powered India's first ever controlled ascent rocket that we flew last year.  Ever so grateful to the pi Ventures team for having trusted us early.

pi Ventures  are an exceptional investor from a founder's perspective. Manish has been a founder, continues to go deep in whatever he does, which makes him someone to want in your corner as you navigate the highs and lows of the founder journey, both holding you accountable and making you feel supported.

Jo AGGARWAL

Co-founder & CEO, Wysa

pi Ventures have been our excellent partners since inception of Niramai. Their ability to deeply understand and perceive the value of science based ideas is amazing! They also run founder- focused initiatives which gives a lot of support to early stage startups.
