Global HealthX, the healthcare and life sciences innovation hub under the Global University Foundation, has crossed $15 million in investments across healthcare and life sciences startups, as well as studio-built ventures, over the past two years. Operating at the intersection of healthcare, life sciences, and technology, Global HealthX brings together a venture studio, strategic investments, and market-access partnerships within a single, integrated model. The platform aims to address structural gaps in India’s healthcare ecosystem, particularly in access, affordability, and continuity of care. The most recent cohort includes five startups — TapHealth, Wellytics, Monitra Health, Merry Health, and Avika — working across AI-led chronic care, cardiac monitoring, emergency response, genomics-driven precision medicine, and VR-based mental health therapy. The Hyderabad-based firm typically invests between $250,000 and $500,000 per company, with flexibility for follow-on investments from pre-seed to Series A and beyond, depending on scale and impact potential. Looking ahead, Global HealthX plans to deploy $8–10 million in 2026 across 10 additional startups spanning healthcare and life sciences, reinforcing its commitment to building long-term healthcare infrastructure in India while enabling the right market access. Led by Ravindranath Kancherla, Global HealthX (GHX) is a healthcare and life sciences venture studio, accelerator, and investment fund focused on innovation, R&D, and startup acceleration in India. Operating as the innovation arm of the Global Institute for Research & Innovation (GIRI), it aims to make healthcare more accessible through technology and expert mentorship.

US-based early-stage venture capital firm Expert DOJO has launched an India-dedicated startup cohort. As part of this accelerator program, the firm will invest $100,000 each in over 10 startups across sectors such as technology, AI, EV, B2B and more. According to Expert DOJO, the startups will not only receive capital but also get mentorship, growth support, and access to its global investor network. Applications for the cohort are now open for startups. This cohort is designed to help early-stage startups strengthen their business models, enter new markets, and move quickly toward raising their next funding round. The aim of this cohort is to support Indian founders facing challenges like limited access to global capital, lack of international mentorship, and restricted market reach. This launch follows Expert Dojo’s earlier announcement of a $15 million India-focused fund, with plans to deploy in 20–25 early-stage startups by FY26. While the fund is sector-agnostic, it will focus on high-potential areas like fintech, SaaS, B2B, and AI, helping founders scale beyond borders. With its latest upcoming cohort, Expert DOJO remains committed to helping startups with not just capital, but a structured path to global growth. By combining deep founder support with an active investor network and global market access, they continue to serve as a launchpad for the next generation of impactful, venture-backable companies.
