Additionally, IPV has also introduced a mechanism to inculcate a savings mindset / disciplined approach to startup investing. It is a new way of investing for the members wherein they can start contributing with savings as low as INR 50K per month towards their startup investing preference with the platform and this can be allocated to startup as and when they select startup to invest-in.

IPV, which has invested over Rs 500 crore in 140 startups, aims to democratise angel investment in India.

With IPV’s help, many professionals like lawyers, doctors and housewives are for the first time experiencing the benefits of startup investments and becoming a part of a fast growing asset class. 

Vinay Bansal, Founder CEO, IPV, says, “We are a big believer of the Indian startup ecosystem story. Indian startups tech prowess has put India on the global map. However, investing in startups remained a bastion of a few. IPV aims to change that by bringing in more first time investors backing world-class startups. Currently, over 80% of our investors base comprises first time investors. With the launch of Main Bhi Angel, we want to accelerate the adoption of startup investing as an asset class and a credible wealth creation tool.”

Our campaign is also attempting to explain the whole process which otherwise may sound complicated to first time investors.”
