White Unicorn Ventures

White Unicorn Ventures is a Mumbai, Maharashtra-based Indian early-stage venture capital firm founded in 2014 by Principal Founder Rohit Chokhani to provide seed funding and operating support to visionary Indian startups. The firm is sector-broad by Indian VC standards, deploying capital into IoT, robotics, 3D printing, AR/VR, real estate and proptech, mass rapid transport solutions, water management, education, governmental services and fintech, areas where founders are building infrastructure-grade products for India's domestic market, generally as a co-investor. In parallel to writing equity checks, White Unicorn operates two distinctive ecosystem programs: White Unicorn Growth Centers, a network of hybrid co-working spaces that give portfolio and prospective founders access to physical infrastructure, mentorship and a peer community; and the Grass Roots Unicorn Program, an initiative that scouts entrepreneurial talent out of India's top academic institutions and accelerates them with structured mentorship, resources and seed capital. Across approximately 22 disclosed investments, the portfolio includes SuperU, a business-productivity software company and the firm's most recent reported investment in March 2022, CARD91 in issuance and payments infrastructure, Hungry Foal in food products, and consumer companies that have already produced three acquisition exits including dating app Aisle and wedding marketplace ShaadiSaga. Investing pace into 2023 to 2025 has been quiet relative to the 2017 to 2021 window. By pairing seed capital with co-working infrastructure and a campus-scouting program, White Unicorn Ventures backs early-stage Indian founders building infrastructure-grade products across a broad set of sectors.
