Follow Us

In a bold strategic move, Bengaluru-based investment platform LetsVenture has officially rebranded itself as LVX, signalling its evolution from an early-stage angel investing marketplace into a comprehensive, full-lifecycle startup funding and education platform. This rebranding reflects LVX’s ambitious vision to support India’s startup ecosystem not just today, but well into the future—“India@2047”—the centenary year of India’s independence.

LVX: A Unified Platform for Every Stage of Startup Growth

Founded in 2013 by Shanti Mohan and Sanjay Jha, LetsVenture has grown into one of India’s largest angel investing marketplaces, boasting over 900 portfolio startups and a network of more than 14,000 investors. Its impressive backing includes marquee names like Accel, Chiratae Ventures, Ratan Tata, Mohandas Pai, and Anupam Mittal. Startups such as Stockgro, Giva, Yulu, Kenko, Fasal, and FarMart have benefited from its early-stage funding and support.

With the rebranding to LVX, the company is expanding its focus beyond angel investing to cover the entire startup funding journey—from seed capital to growth-stage investments—while also introducing educational initiatives for founders and investors.

Three Pillars of LVX’s New Strategy

LVX will now operate through three dedicated verticals designed to cater to startups and investors at different stages:

1. LVX Start: Early-Stage Funding Continues

This vertical carries forward LetsVenture’s legacy of supporting early-stage startups through angel networks and its angel Alternative Investment Fund (AIF). It remains the go-to platform for first-time founders seeking seed capital and mentorship.

2. LVX Grow: Fueling Growth-Stage Startups

Recognizing the rising demand for growth capital in India’s maturing startup ecosystem, LVX Grow focuses on connecting startups with venture funds, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals (HNIs). This pivot aligns with industry trends, as growth-stage funding in India surged 18% year-on-year in the first half of 2025, reaching $2 billion across 143 deals.

3. LVX School: Empowering Founders and Investors

LVX School is an open-source educational platform offering structured learning on critical topics such as capital structuring, fundraising strategies, scaling operations, and financial literacy. This initiative aims to build a knowledgeable community of founders and investors equipped to navigate the complex startup landscape.

LV Debt: Expanding Access to Non-Dilutive Capital

In 2024, LVX introduced LV Debt, a marketplace dedicated to helping startups access debt financing options. This platform also educates founders on non-dilutive capital, providing an alternative to equity dilution and supporting sustainable business growth.

Building for India@2047: A Vision for the Future

Shanti Mohan, co-founder and CEO of LVX, shared her vision:
“With LVX, we bring all our products, people, and possibilities under one trusted brand. We are building for India@2047—creating a platform that is modular, scalable, and ready for the next generation of founders and investors.”

This long-term outlook reflects LVX’s commitment to nurturing a robust Indian startup ecosystem that can compete globally and contribute meaningfully to India’s economic growth over the next two decades.

Why LVX’s Rebranding Matters for Indian Startups

  • Comprehensive Support: From seed funding to growth capital, LVX offers startups a seamless funding journey under one roof.

  • Investor Education: LVX School empowers investors with knowledge, improving investment quality and outcomes.

  • Access to Debt Financing: LV Debt opens new avenues for startups to raise funds without equity dilution.

  • Alignment with Market Trends: LVX’s growth-stage focus taps into the increasing investor appetite for sectors like AI, deeptech, and fintech.

  • Building a Future-Ready Ecosystem: The India@2047 vision positions LVX as a catalyst for long-term innovation and entrepreneurship.

The Road Ahead: LVX in India’s Startup Landscape

As India’s startup ecosystem matures, platforms like LVX are critical in bridging gaps between founders and investors at every stage of growth. With its integrated approach and educational focus, LVX is well-positioned to lead India’s startups into a new era of innovation, funding, and global competitiveness.

The rebranding to LVX is more than a name change—it is a declaration of intent to build a vibrant, scalable, and sustainable startup ecosystem that will thrive well into the future.

LVX’s transformation marks a significant milestone in India’s entrepreneurial journey, empowering startups and investors to dream bigger and build stronger for the India of tomorrow.
