Wipro Ventures invests in 18 early and mid-stage startups since inception in 2015

Firstpost  

Wipro Ventures has deployed more than two-thirds of its corpus in 18 startups, according to media reports. The $100 million Wipro Ventures is the strategic investment arm of Wipro and focuses on investing in early-to-mid-stage startups. It has helped its parent Wipro win over 100 deals – 14 in the US, three in Israel and one in Pune-based data startup Altizon Systems Pvt Ltd. “As of date we have committed more than $65 million in the capital,” said Venu Pemmaraju, a managing partner at Wipro Ventures, a report in Mint said. Last year in June, Rishad Premji, NASSCOM Chairman and Chief Strategy Officer and Member of the Board, Wipro Limited, had said that start-ups in India would see substantial growth over the next decade and many of them would turn into world-class organisations to lead the next phase of building “brand India” in a broader technology landscape. He had cited a report titled Perspective 2025: Shaping the Digital Revolution’ by the NASSCOM which said the Indian technology and services industry is on track to reach its goal of $200-225 billion in revenues by 2020 and may even touch $350 billion by 2025.
