Loading ...Wish to announce that Canaan Partners (pronounced K-nun) is opening their office in India, and I will be heading that up. Canaan is an early stage investment firm, and focusses on IT and Healthcare technologies. I am pretty encouraged that the Canaan Partnership is keen to share their learnings and experiences of over 19 years with the nascent Indian ecosystem, and have a genuine desire to engage with the entrepreneurs here.
Instead of putting too much of a plug myself, might as well divert you to contentsutra and siliconbeat for the same. Here is the press release.
Here’s to more of successful entrepreneurial and VC activity in India!
Hey Alok!
Congrats! You broke an year of silence with this great news. Will this be based out of Delhi/NCR?

Hey Alok,
Congatulations! This sounds good. Not many early stage funds in the country so this bodes well for entrepreneurs!
