Favcy Venture Builders (Favcy VB) has celebrated its 10th anniversary with the Favcy VB Summit 2025, held at Bharat Mandapam. The summit brought together over 150 VCs and investors, along with more than 30 founders from its portfolio. The attendees included prominent VCs and family offices such as AWE Funds, Stanford Alumni Fund, She Capital, Anay Ventures, and the Vineeta Surana Family Office, among others. Angel investors from its 1stCheque network and government dignitaries from organizations like MeitY and iStart Rajasthan also participated. The summit highlighted Favcy VB’s pivotal role in empowering over 10,000 founders. "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 featured live pitches by 33 founders across sectors such as AI, SaaS, D2C, deeptech, and sportstech. Notable startups included Serri, a Gen AI product startup, and Maity's, an elder care services venture. Some of the startups secured funding commitments worth over Rs 40 crore, with leading VC firms and HNIs—including AWE Funds, Good Capital, and IIM A Ventures—participating in the funding rounds, backing high-growth ventures. "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. A key highlight of the summit was the 1to10 Demo Day, a platform where first-time investors actively participated in shaping the future of India’s startup ecosystem. This initiative aligns with Favcy VB’s broader mission to democratize access to venture building and early-stage investing. The summit also showcased Favcy VB’s cutting-edge Gen AI platforms—Favcy Navigator and Startup Nalanda—designed to empower founders at every stage of their entrepreneurial journey. Favcy VB is a venture-building platform dedicated to structured startup creation and investment opportunities. It aims to empower 10,000 founders and transform high-potential ideas into scalable, investor-ready businesses.
