Favcy Venture Builders (Favcy VB) recently celebrated its 10th anniversary with the Favcy VB Summit 2025, held at Bharat Mandapam. The event brought together over 150 venture capitalists (VCs), investors, and over 30 founders from its portfolio, marking a decade of structured venture building.
A Gathering of Industry Leaders
The summit welcomed prominent VCs and family offices, including AWE Funds, Stanford Alumni Fund, She Capital, Anay Ventures, and the Vineeta Surana Family Office. Angel investors from Favcy’s 1stCheque network and government representatives from MeitY and iStart Rajasthan also participated, underscoring Favcy VB’s growing influence in India’s startup ecosystem.
A Decade of Venture Building
“Over the past decade, we’ve refined venture building into a science, ensuring startups have a strong foundation from day one. This is the future of entrepreneurship. The next unicorns won’t just be discovered; they’ll be built,”said Pranav Chaturvedi, Founding Partner & MD of Favcy VB.
The summit showcased live pitches from 33 founders spanning sectors such as AI, SaaS, deeptech, D2C, and sportstech. Standout startups included Serri, a Gen AI product startup, and Maity’s, an elder care services venture. Some startups secured funding commitments exceeding Rs 40 crore, with leading investors like AWE Funds, Good Capital, and IIM A Ventures backing high-growth ventures.
Driving Early-Stage Investing
A key highlight was the 1to10 Demo Day, a platform where first-time investors actively engaged in shaping India’s startup landscape. This initiative aligns with Favcy VB’s vision of democratizing venture building and early-stage investing.
“Favcy VB’s structured approach de-risks early-stage investing and ensures scalable success. The portfolio we saw today is a testament to their model,” said Seema Chaturvedi, Managing Partner, AWE Funds.
Innovation at the Core
Favcy VB also unveiled its latest Gen AI-powered platforms—Favcy Navigator and Startup Nalanda—designed to support founders throughout their entrepreneurial journey.
As Favcy VB embarks on its next decade, it remains committed to empowering 10,000 founders and transforming high-potential ideas into scalable, investor-ready businesses.
