The Marwari Angels

Overview

The Marwari Angels is India's first angel network created by the business community, focusing on empowering early-stage startups through seed funding and strategic support. Operating as the angel network arm of the startup accelerator Marwari Catalysts, their mission is to foster entrepreneurship, particularly in the under-served markets of Tier-II and Tier-III cities. They provide a platform for startups to connect with a network of experienced investors (angels) for capital, mentorship, and networking opportunities, thereby helping new ventures to grow and scale their operations. The network brings together seasoned entrepreneurs and investors to support high-potential startups. By leveraging the business acumen of its members, The Marwari Angels aim to bridge the gap between first-generation entrepreneurs and emerging technology startups. They offer a structured investment platform that connects high-potential founders with family offices, strategic investors, high-net-worth individuals (HNIs), angels, and institutional capital. This approach combines capital with mentorship, governance, business-building support, and ecosystem access to create sustainable business value. The Marwari Angels have a disciplined and scalable capital structure to support startups, venture studio companies, impact-driven businesses, and emerging-market opportunities. Their investment focus includes early-stage startups, venture studio opportunities, and emerging-market businesses from Tier II, Tier III, rural, and regional markets with strong growth potential. By providing both financial resources and strategic guidance, they aim to foster long-term value creation and support the growth of innovative ventures across India.
