Happy Investors make Happy us ! (You can see that in the pic) Normally I don't write about VC's and investors other than thanking them after the fund raise. I did it twice as of now. But this time I want to make everyone know how they're helping us grow from Tier 2 city. They're the FRIGATE 's first believers. The way they fine tune you going forward and backing you is always commendable. Only few founders talks about that. They think miles ahead of us as they normally know what they're doing. Those combined expertise and insights help us scale in a much faster way and lots of what not to do sessions as well. I feel that's very much important for Founders. Finally there were lots of serious (Series- A 😉) discussions as well as adding spices to the flavour. Particularly in India where Hardware, B2B manufacturing, Deeptech are hardly taken. If you're building something on this, then look no other than Arali Ventures Capital-A (Manjushree Capital Advisors) and Java Capital Happy to meet all of you on the board together at the beautiful Arali Office, Indranagar, Bangalore. We had the best quarter Q1 since inception and Excited about the next three quarters . Let's Make in India for the globe. That's the one line story of Frigate !!
