Sunicon Ventures

Sunicon Ventures is an early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2018 and based in Mumbai, India, structured as an Alternate Investment Fund (AIF). It is the institutional venture arm of the family behind Sun Capital Advisory Services, a boutique investment bank established by Suresh Jain in 2006, and it grew out of an earlier family investment fund. The firm is led by Managing Partner Suresh Jain alongside Founding Partners Saloni Jain, a Harvard Business School alumna and investment-banking partner at Sun Capital, and Darshan Jain, drawing on more than three decades of combined investment experience. Sunicon describes itself as sector-agnostic, investing in disruptive Indian startups across artificial intelligence and machine learning, fintech, consumer and direct-to-consumer brands, healthcare, edtech, agritech, biotech, blockchain, AR/VR and Web3. It writes seed to pre-Series A cheques typically ranging from US $100,000 to $500,000, around $300,000 on average, and provides strategic guidance, mentorship and network access, generally as a co-investor. Reported fund-size figures range from roughly INR 830 million, about $10M, to $20M. As of January 2026 it was an active investor in around 23 companies, with four new investments in the prior twelve months. Notable portfolio companies include footwear D2C brand Neeman's, performance-nutrition company Neulife, edge-AI semiconductor startup Sensesemi, culture-led gaming brand Chittam, mixed-reality glasses maker Anjalens, and edtech firms Saarthi Pedagogy and Vidyakul. Backed by an investment-banking heritage, Sunicon Ventures supports early-stage Indian founders across a broad technology landscape.
