Amazingly written @Rahul_J_Mathur . I am going to use it and change investing into human capital and repost very soon 😄! Seeing you in the last two years as you created a space for yourself in the eco system and within the fund, has been a pleasure!

The VC fund of the future: a small number of highly experienced, high-agency people with deep trust, who are exceptional at evaluating founders and building real relationships with them. Surrounded by tons of agents.

Last week, we hosted the Bangalore edition of Capital & Cocktails, where over 50 remarkable leaders in strategy and finance came together for an evening dedicated to exploring how they can unlock opportunities in the Bharat Techade.

Moderated by @RenetaKripalani and hosted by #TanyaDutta, we were privileged to have @RomitaMazumdar and @TheMadrasVC on our panel. We are grateful for their invaluable insights, which inspired the audience to engage in deeper reflection, embrace diverse perspectives, and consider their individual journeys.

At Z47, Capital & Cocktails focuses on creating a platform for women leaders to engage in meaningful dialogue, addressing the challenges and opportunities that shape strategy and finance in this dynamic era. We aim to foster important conversations and create a space where leaders can connect, collaborate, and grow together.

As we look forward to the Mumbai chapter, we are excited to build on this momentum.

If you are working in or building in this space, we would love to have you join our community online. Drop our team a line.

Matrix Partners India will change its brand name to Z47 (pronounced: ZEE-forty-seven) beginning July 1, as part of a broader branding effort. The new name is inspired by India’s journey towards a developed country by 2047, with India’s founder and digital ecosystem at the heart of its growth story. There will be no change to the operations of existing Matrix Partners India funds or our early–stage and founders focused strategy.

This change also reflects our responsiveness to regional market dynamics and a continued focus on competing locally. We have always operated with separate decision–making and back offices from Matrix in the US, and the name change further clarifies this approach. New website and other elements of the brand will be unveiled in due course.
