Blume Ventures GIFT Fund V
Karthik Reddy and Sanjay Nath started Blume Ventures in 2010 to change how Indian startups get funding and support. As early angel investors, they saw Indian entrepreneurship take off. They wanted a firm that could help founders from the start all the way to major growth. They planned a platform that mixed quick angel investing with the structure of a fund, connecting local angel groups with global VC firms. Blume Ventures has since become essential to India’s startup world, backing over 100 companies in different sectors. It supports entrepreneurs solving India's unique issues, such as language differences or cultural aspects. These founders solve problems specific to India but aim for the world stage. Blume's story mirrors the growth of Indian startups: made in India, for India, with global aims.
