0

Masters’ Union has launched a ₹100 crore early-stage investment fund, MU Ventures, aimed at backing entrepreneurs under the age of 25. The Gurugram-based institution will invest between ₹5 lakh and ₹50 lakh per startup, with an average cheque size of ₹10–20 lakh.

The fund will operate on a rolling application basis and is designed to support student founders and young entrepreneurs at the earliest stages of their journey.

Multi-Track Strategy to Back Diverse Startup Segments

MU Ventures will deploy capital across four distinct tracks, including a ‘Dropout Fund’ for student founders, a ‘Bharat Capital Fund’ focused on Tier 2–4 markets, and a ‘Content Creator Fund’ targeting digital-first startups.

The advisory board includes industry leaders such as Shishir Maheshwari, Arjun Vaidya, and Swapna Gupta, bringing strategic guidance and ecosystem access to the initiative.

Beyond Capital: Mentorship and Global Exposure

Founded in 2020 by Pratham Mittal, Masters’ Union follows a “learn by doing” approach to education and entrepreneurship.

Beyond funding, startups selected under MU Ventures will receive mentorship, co-working space, technology credits, and investor-readiness support through partnerships with companies like Amazon, Google, and Razorpay.

Founders will also get an opportunity to participate in a demo day in San Francisco, enabling access to global investors and networks.

The institution has already produced startups such as Sanyark Space, Cryptique, and Flourish Foods, reinforcing its focus on building a founder-first ecosystem.
