The company is led by Manish Dharanendra Ladage (Director), founder and managing partner, and Seema Manish Ladage (Director). Mastermind JPIN Capital Partners is described as an SME-focused growth fund that invests in unlisted companies seeking transformational growth capital.

The 'JPIN' in the fund name is understood to refer to a Japan-India growth corridor thesis, connecting Japanese capital with Indian SMEs.
