Mumbai Angels

Mumbai Angels is a long-standing angel network that invests in early-stage startups across sectors, connecting founders with high-net-worth angels after a curated screening and pitch process. Founded in 2006, Mumbai Angels has grown into a network of 400+ angel members that has backed more than 170 startups, including two unicorns, Purplle and InMobi. Applications go through an open online form followed by curated monthly pitch events, with the intake-to-decision cycle typically taking four to eight weeks. Applicants with clear revenue traction or a validated prototype and defined market hypothesis tend to perform best, and while the network is sector-agnostic, its historical strength lies in consumer, fintech and healthcare deals.
