About
YouWeCan Ventures is the personal venture investment vehicle of former Indian international cricketer Yuvraj Singh, established in April 2015 in Gurugram, India alongside the broader YouWeCan brand that Yuvraj first launched in 2013 as a cancer-awareness foundation. The firm is structured as a single family office rather than an LP-backed fund: Yuvraj announced an initial commitment of approximately INR 40 to 50 crore to deploy into Indian technology startups, and seed checks have historically been INR 10 to 25 lakh per company, generally as a co-investor. Day-to-day operations are co-led by long-time business advisor and Chartered Accountant Nishant Singhal, with a six-person investment team comprising CAs, technologists and management consultants. The fund invests across seed, angel and Series A stages, with sectoral interest spanning business services, consumer internet, healthtech and wellness, gaming and esports, edtech, mobility, and food and beverage. Across roughly 18 disclosed investments, named portfolio companies include Healthians in preventive diagnostics, in which YouWeCan reportedly clocked a 100x-plus partial-exit return, JetSetGo in private aviation, Moovo in mini-truck booking, EduKart in online education, EazyDiner in restaurant reservations, Wellversed in keto and wellness food, HoloSuit, a motion-capture VR suit, Cartisan and Vyomo. Yuvraj's investment philosophy is explicitly brand-and-face-led: he typically backs companies in which he can publicly champion the brand and lend his personal cricketing celebrity to drive consumer awareness. As a celebrity family office, YouWeCan Ventures backs early-stage Indian consumer and technology founders it can publicly promote.
