This blog is an attempt to bring the Indian venture community closer together. All its constituents, right from the entrepreneurs themselves, venture capital firms, angel funds, lawyers, recruiters, investment bankers, incubation cells — the list goes on.
As an entrepeneur, then as an angel investor and private equity professional, I have felt that despite close alignment of our end goals, there exist vast gaps in our understanding of each other. Gaps which are often responsible for inefficiencies in the system. For example, the entrepreneurs’ collective understanding of what the “hot areas” are might be very different from the investors’ view — venturewoods is a platform to discuss, and not necessarily agree on, those views. This site is an attempt to prevent all of us from being lost in the woods.
The objective of venturewoods is to be an open community without compromising on quality. If you feel that you have thoughts that you want to share, feel free to write in and request an account. In any case, do feel free to comment.

Well done, Alok. Came across this excellent resource and will recommend it to others.
We have a new startup – Foxsys Technologies, started in November last year. We are focused on delivering quality solutions and services. We want to launch a new ‘not done before’ education service and also develop and bring to market an online marketplace portal and software using the latest Microsoft technologies. We are profitable currently. For further growth we are seeking capital in the range of USD $80-150K as an Angel or VC investment.

Dear Folks,
Have been seeing this spot for quite a bit of time. Seems to be a good bridge.
Wanted to share this.
Facebook opens up for third party, and hence a great opportunity for partners wanting to “use” facebook. Ain’t it cool!
thanks –

Hi
I’m currently working for a small i-bank based out of mumbai. Prior to this, i was working for a big consulting firm in their advisory services division.(amongst the Big Four). I’m looking for openings in venture capital firms / PE firms , wherein i can add value in terms of making assessment of vast investment opportunities available, identify low risk, high growth companies across sectors, and also probably advise my clients (like HNIs, corporates) on investment. I would also be open to joining firms that help their clients in raising private equity / IPO funds, M&A advisory services, capital structuring advisory services, etc.
Can you tell me if there are currently such openings available? Who do i contact for the same?
In my current position, I’ve played a crucial role in closing a couple of transactions in Private equity and IPO for my clients.
Regards
Vijay
An excellent effort Alok!
