The playbook for going global from India has changed. The infrastructure is better, the networks are denser, and US investors are paying attention in ways they weren't five years ago.
The hard questions remain: when to make the move, how to break into US customer networks as an outsider, what catches you off guard operationally and more.
On June 17, Lightspeed and @aspireappglobal are bringing together founders who've made the leap for an exclusive, honest evening on what the journey actually looks like.
If you're building with global ambitions, this is the conversation you wouldn't want to miss!

150+ researchers from OpenAI, Google DeepMind, Meta, Mistral, Stripe, and more - all in one room for the @SarvamAI story.
Last Thursday, we hosted ๐๐ฏ ๐๐ท๐ฆ๐ฏ๐ช๐ฏ๐จ ๐ธ๐ช๐ต๐ฉ ๐๐ข๐ณ๐ท๐ข๐ฎ ๐๐ in San Francisco. @pratykumar joined @MohapatraHemant and @dkhare for a conversation on building sovereign AI out of India, scaling compute, and expanding into the Bay Area to work alongside the people doing this at frontier scale.
Grateful to everyone who showed up and made the conversation worth having, see you at the next one!

50 million new investors will enter the Indian public markets in the next decade. Are today's platforms built for them?
@romitme, in an interaction with @AyantiBera of the @FinancialXpress, shared that the existing players in the broking industry are not directly catering to their needs. The next wave of investors will need handholding, education, and a platform that feels built for them, not legacy.
Lightspeed has backed @Trackkofficial, which is bridging this gap by going beyond market access to help first-time investors discover and understand investment opportunities.
Read the full story by Ayanti in the Financial Express on why VC firms are supporting this new generation of brokerages built for India's next wave of investors.

AI has changed the way work happens in engineering, legal, and customer support and made those functions 10x more productive. But revenue teams have not seen the same impact, yet.
Today, our portfolio company, Rattle, is announcing the launch of Von (& their pivot) to bring true AI to revenue teams. @saheelaggarwal & @apoorvaverma2, founders of Von, describe existing revenue tech as horseless carriages and Von is their version of a car.
What is Von? It is the intelligence layer over the entire GTM tech stack โ the brain, orchestration and execution layer, all in one. It handles 80% of all RevOps operational work, freeing teams to focus on strategy and the backlog that is years long. To the CRO, VP Sales, and frontline teams who are always stuck in that backlog, Von feels like having their own VP of RevOps โ one that understands the business and is available 24/7.
Von users describe it as โ3xโing team capacityโ, โtoo good to be true till you try itโ, and โaddictive.โ

We're excited to double down on @Triomicsinc's Series B as they continue to expand their oncology-specific AI platform for cancer centers.
Oncology breakthroughs are keeping patients alive longer, but patient histories are growing into dense, multi-year records that take clinicians a long time to navigate.
Triomics helps oncologists and administrative staff cut through that complexity. Starting with clinical trial matching, the platform has since expanded to include verifiable patient summaries that surface key information directly inside the tools clinicians already use, reducing appointment prep time without adding new workflows.
Congratulations to @k__sarim, @hrituraj1997, and the team!

Congratulations to @kumarharsha2212 on being named one of the country's top self-made women in @ForbesIndia's W-Power List 2026.
Harsha began coding at a young age. That early passion for building later evolved into a sharp operator's mindset. She carried that instinct into investing when she joined Lightspeed in 2016, where she now backs founders across consumer tech, edtech, and emerging categories.
Hereโs to all the remarkable women of India!
AI in India is no longer just mirroring the US ecosystem. Itโs forging its own path - built for scale, accessibility, and real-world impact in ways that are uniquely Indian.
This Thursday, weโre curating a group of researchers doing genuinely promising work solving complex problems, featuring Indiaโs most consequential AI company: @SarvamAI.
Come hear from Sarvam AI co-founder @pratykumar alongside @MohapatraHemant and @dkhare for a candid fireside chat on the opportunity ahead, followed by an exclusive mixer.
Seats are limited. RSVP here: https://t.co/FK5eXTfpLq

Focused on the secondary care market, the platform acts as an intelligent automation layer that connects directly to existing Electronic Health Records (EHR) systems, fax lines, and payer portals, automating patient intake, prior authorizations, billings, and more.
Coral effectively extracts key patient documents with 99.4% accuracy, cutting intake times to under five minutes. By handling the heavy lifting, the company ensures the paperwork no longer dictates the pace of a patientโs recovery and frees up teams to focus on what matters most.

Medicine is moving forward, but the back office is still tied to older processes.
In todayโs edition of #UptoSpeed, we deep dive into how a New York-based startup is using deep-tech automation to help healthcare systems recover from administrative overload.

๐งโโ๏ธ Better Workflow, Better Care
@ajshrihari, having personally experienced this paperwork challenge, developed Coral with his friend and co-founder Aniket Mohanty to streamline fragmented communication between care providers, hospitals, and payers using AI-driven automation and agentic workflows.
We just raised $3.7M backed by @LightspeedIndia & @InfoEdgeVC
1 in 4 Indians is between 18 and 25. Theyโre the most financially aware generation this country has ever seen and every product built for them has let them down.
That ends now.
Trackk is built ground up for how Gen Z actually discovers, thinks, and invests. From the first spark of curiosity finding the right stock, understanding why it matters to the insights that give you conviction, to execution thatโs seamless. One native journey, start to finish. Not adapted from something old. Built new, from day one.
90% of our users are Gen Z. The other 10%? They just feel young. If thatโs you Trackk is yours.
Fundraising isnโt the win. Building a product that users love is the win. This backing helps us scale further and build something far better.
To our team, our co-founders, and every user whoโs been with us from the start this one is for you!
Weโre hiring across all verticals. If you want to build something generational, the door is open.
@Trackkofficial
We are thrilled to lead @Trackkofficial's seed round as they work toward building the definitive investment platform for Young India.
Trackk is built for a generation that discovers stocks through creators, communities, and digital platforms, with nearly 90% of its users being Gen Z aged 20-24. AI-led discovery and personalized journeys sit at its core, making investing more intuitive and accessible for beginners.
Excited for the journey ahead as they build what the new wave of investors has always needed!
