Picture this: with dozens of new funds launched since 2021, investors are sitting on a veritable gold mine — an estimated $20 Bn dry powder, ready to be poured into promising Indian startups. This massive capital could shape the next wave of innovation in the world’s third-largest startup ecosystem; however, one roadblock remains.

It is worth noting that domestic capital contributes less than 10% of the total capital invested in Indian startups to date. This contradicts the increasing interest of investors in startups as a lucrative asset class.

So what’s stopping domestic investors from taking the plunge? In simple terms, it is the lack of knowledge, networks and access.

Inc42 is committed to bringing change. On our mission to unlock the potential of domestic capital, educating investors and empowering them with strategic funding insights, we’ve taken many steps.

Last year, we launched AngelX and CapitalX, innovative programmes designed exclusively for angel investors and first-time fund managers, respectively. Since then, we have helped over 200 aspiring investors access knowledge and network to fuel India’s startup economy.

We have now set our sights on a grander scale, aiming to take this mission to new heights! Three months back, we announced — MoneyX, India’s Largest Angel & VC Conclave, a one-day conclave for startup investors, scheduled for July 20 at Leela Ambience, Gurugram.

Presented in partnership with Peak XV Partners, supported by Venture Catalysts, JSA, IVCA Associates, Indian Angel Network, JIIF and Marwari Catalysts and powered by Samsung, MoneyX is aimed at bringing the driving forces of the Indian startup ecosystem under a single roof. 

This exclusive, invite-only conclave will convene India’s 300-plus VCs, PEs, angels, family offices, and other institutional investors, paving the way for groundbreaking collaborations. At MoneyX, you will also get an opportunity to learn about the trends driving the future of startup investments in India from more than 40 top Indian investors. 

While there are several conferences that help HNIs invest in traditional asset classes, MoneyX is designed with the sole focus of promoting investments in India’s booming tech and startup economy.
