Our Story
At SAN Angels, we are dedicated to building a simple and efficient process for investing in Indian startups from across the globe.
By taking a strategic and process driven approach to evaluating startups, we bring the right opportunities for our investors.
In the autumn of 2018, a group of ten friends gathered in Boston to discuss the Indian startup ecosystem. As longtime residents of the USA, they were all interested in the potential of investing in startups in India. However, they faced a number of challenges, including concerns about fund transfers, taxation, and the need for a trusted partner in India to identify the right opportunities and guide them through the investment process.
It was out of these discussions that the idea for SAN Angels was born – to be trusted partners for angel investors. And in November 2021, we launched SAN Angels to bring this vision to life.
At SAN Angels, we are dedicated to building an affordable process for investors and startups. We take a strategic approach to evaluating startups, cutting through the noise to identify the fundamental strengths of a business and the right opportunities for our investors.
If you are interested in building a portfolio of startup investments and are seeking a transparent and trustworthy partner to guide you on this journey, we welcome you to join us at SAN Angels.
Investment Focus Areas
Our investment approach aims to balance risk and reward, focusing on startups backed by institutional investors. We prefer startups with annual revenue of at least INR 20 million. While open to all sectors, we favor B2B tech ventures. In the past 18 months, we’ve supported health tech, prop tech, EdTech, agriculture and more startups.
Startups can apply through our online portal or at network events. Our team carefully reviews each application before selecting promising ones for further evaluation. This includes thorough due diligence checks and inviting shortlisted startups to pitch their ideas to our investors. We also provide ongoing guidance and networking opportunities.
