“India’s GDP per capita is expected to grow from current $2400 to $10000 over the next 10-12 years, given the economic flywheel that is now firmly established.  This means that there will be generation of wealth across the spectrum widening the small market of HNIs and thus, we will need more people to manage the allocation of that wealth into asset classes like venture capital.  Looking ahead thus, there will be a shortage of quality professionals in the fund management industry. The VC Fellows are headed in the right direction to not only capitalise on this trend but also to acquire the skills to beable to invest in businesses and entrepreneurs. I wish the 1st cohort of VC Fellows at HireVC all the best on this journey and am personally delighted to be mentoring not just founders but also prospective VCs of tomorrow and help them navigate their careers with authentic information and guidance.” – Anup Jain, Founding Partner, India-Focused Early-Stage VC.
