Sidana Ventures brought global investments for Deep Tech startup founder who is building AI-based products in India. VAANI Raised the capital from Swiss investors. Congratulations to Tushar Shinde and the Vaani Research Labs team.
Rakesh Sidans says ” When I met Tushar, he didn’t believe that someone could help him raise capital from another country. He was already in talks with Indian Funds”
The team closed his deal in a week just after the introduction. The investor was first time investing in India and we took time to help them with compliance to make this transaction happen in the bank.
At SIDANA VENTURES, the team have global reach and are well connected to family offices and investors in Europe, UK and Japan to help them invest in India.
There are multiple use cases of AI-humonoid voice where calling tasks can be reduced tremendously to give you precise leads and outcomes.
BPOs for calling customers with the same script is tedious, HR recruitment where call interviews need a smarter AI-Interviewer, and Insurance companies for automatic renewal reminders and selling vehicles are just a few use cases that can change the way AI can reduce the cost and have an impact on the topline of businesses.
