About

Huddle Venture VC Fund is a SEBI-registered Category II AIF managed by Huddle Venture Management Private Limited, the legal entity behind Huddle Ventures — an early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2017 (registered with SEBI in January 2023) by Ishaan Khosla and Sanil Sachar, based in Gurugram.

Investment philosophy

Huddle Ventures operates with a high-conviction, pre-seed/seed investment strategy that partners with founders at the earliest stages. The firm believes in backing founders before the world sees what they see — investing in companies across sectors including retail, consumer brands, fintech, agri-tech, and healthcare, without limiting itself to any single vertical. The firm institutionalizes a methodology that consistently supports early-stage ventures to grow into established organizations. Its philosophy assigns significant weight to a founder's purpose and values, believing that these traits drive long-term outcomes above intelligence and skill. Beyond capital, Huddle proactively supports portfolio founders with business development, go-to-market strategy, revenue model building, and talent hiring. Its expansive network of key advisors — including founders from Zomato, Shiprocket, Future Group, KPMG, OYO, and Grant Thornton — provides portfolio companies with access to domain expertise and strategic guidance across multiple industries.
