Saw this on X so made an Indian VC version 😂

Har cheez mein bolna hota hai poori team ko

Look closely, it's a mask.

1. Blume- Known for writing reports on every topic, tier 1-2 investor. Writes small meaningful checks.
2. Elevation- started as a PE, now a VC fund. Confusing DNA
3. Tiger Global- YOLO capital
4. Y Combinator- Represents Michael Sibel (writes really small checks)
5. PeakXV- professionals who've been investing in the startup ecosystem, since the time startup as a word became famous
6. Let's venture, 100x- they literally take away your company for $100k checks
7. Lightspeed- Professionals, ex-operators running fund.
8. Matrix- YOLO like tiger, but more thesis driven
9. WTF fund- Nikhil Kamath's fund. Just entered the block, tiny checks in many many startups

VCs don't need to be founders. Infact Ex-founder led funds are some of the worst

@PehchanKaun tu chomu hai - what is this unwarranted hate towards VC

They are literally putting in money to help get an idea and a vision to life - all investing is done basis what founder's pitch, woh log philanthropy nahi kar rahe. They are bankers who have an insanely high risk apetite and want to make a return on their money which they are obligated to return to their LPs

*smoking what? 🤣
