According to media reports around 52% of total startup investments were contributed by Angels in the second quarter of 2022,
But the year 2023 saw more than 40% fall in early-stage investments and only 34% of deals were contributed by angels in the same quarter

Why this fall in Angel Investments ⁉ 

In the last 8 months, our team has connected with 900+ individuals who are investing in this asset class and major pain points discovered:
📌 Lack of transparency in startup selection 
📌 ⁠Lack of visibility/communication on the journey post investments
📌 Exits becoming harder due to a lack of knowledge and awareness

The ticket size isn't the problem anymore with the rising number of HNIs in the country especially in Tier 2 and 3 Cities but the problem lies in terms of knowledge individuals can gain hence even with increasing incomes angels fear to invest in the startup ecosystem

Are you someone who is looking to explore startup investments but fears because of similar points ❓

Insights from the D2C Cohort 🚀
We're excited to spotlight the visionary founder behind mCaffeine, Vikas Lachhwani who reshaped India's skincare landscape with caffeine-infused products. Despite a tea-centric culture, mCaffeine boldly diversified into coffee, green tea, kombucha, and cocoa, carving a unique niche in the market. 🌱☕️

Reflecting upon the recent discussion, the selected founders got to learn from Vikas's experiences. Jotting down the major learnings and takeaways, for #brand management and growth that resonate deeply with today's dynamic market realities. One key insight is navigating the brand paradox where brands must balance differentiation with broad market appeal. The mCaffeine case study serves as a compelling example of strategic brand evolution. We talked about the importance of focused diversification and understanding consumer preferences, which are fundamental to effective #brandpositioning.

Moreover, strategic product development plays a crucial role in sustainable growth. Successful brands leverage data-driven decision-making to expand their product portfolios thoughtfully. Authentic fundraising aligned with the brand's core values and vision is also essential for long-term success. Collaborating with investors ensures strategic alignment and resilience in the middle of the market challenges absolutely.

Ultimately, Plotting a unique path rather than emulating established success stories is vital. Brands should focus on authenticity and innovation, staying true to their values and distinctive offerings. By doing so, they can carve out their niche and create meaningful market impact. Navigating today's competitive landscape requires a blend of strategic foresight, consumer empathy, and authenticity.

A heartfelt thank you to Vikas for sharing invaluable insights during our D2C cohort.

Pedal to the Metal: Pedalstart's Impressive Growth and New Bangalore Office

Today, I had the pleasure of visiting Pedalstart's recently inaugurated innovation hub - Pedalcircle in HSR Layout, Bangalore (their second office after Gurgaon too). The team continues to impress with their execution and dedication to startups.

Pedalstart now boasts a portfolio of 36 startups, which they have successfully accelerated. Starting from near-zero revenue, these portfolio companies have collectively achieved close to $60 million in GMV and around $2 million in ARR. This remarkable achievement is a testament to the young team led by Aditya Darolia and Manas Sunita Pal  whose efforts have been nothing short of spectacular.

If you're interested in learning more about Pedalstart and the exciting work they're doing, I highly recommend visiting their new facilities in HSR Layout and meeting with the team in person. Their new cohort has just launched, making it an excellent time to get involved.

P.S. For those who appreciate a good coffee, the MTR in HSR Layout is just 100 meters away from Pedalstart's new office.
