about us

At July Ventures, we draw inspiration from the month of monsoon: July - a season of energy, renewal, and transformation. We are operational VCs and we back startups across stages, with the belief that the right capital and guidance at the right moment can drive outsized outcomes.

Our team comprises experienced entrepreneurs and investors with deep operational expertise and a track record of building, scaling, and exiting ventures. With a hands-on approach and a focused portfolio, we work closely with founders to turn bold ideas into enduring businesses — and to scale them profitably with clarity, discipline, and purpose.
