"We act as both a builder and a co-founder"
We are Venture builders dedicated to systematically producing new companies, which we help grow and succeed. There are five core activities in which we engage: identifying business ideas, building teams, finding capital, helping govern or manage the ventures and providing shared services.
Unlike startup accelerators and incubators, who mainly provide funding and mentorship, We act as both a builder and a co-founder. We are renowned for having a wealth of human capital, consisting of venture developers, in-residence entrepreneurs, C-level personnel, and in-house support staff
How do we make money?
Unlike the global consultancy giants which work on business advisory projects for a fee, Anzisha Ventures put in our own money to partly fund to map, ideate and scale up the new start-ups, which will be later sold to the partner company at a pre-agreed price.
This is the onboarding process.
Identifying business ideas
- Online application
- Word of mouth
- Networking events
- Co-working space
In all cases, the aspiring founder must complete the online application
