She Capital

Before you reach out

• She Capital is an equity investor, not a grant or an incubator. It publishes no application window or deadline.
• The site speaks to early-stage female founders and startups building for women. If neither describes you, it is probably not the right fit.
• It does not state cheque or fund size, so ask early what a round would look like.

How to reach them

• Use the Reach out button on the home page, or the general inbox on the contact line in the footer.
• Say what you are building, who it serves, and how far along you are.

What to read first

• Its portfolio page, to see what kinds of companies it has backed.
• Its press page, to see how the firm describes its approach.
• The Together page, if you want to meet investors; it is invite-only and needs registration and confirmation.

She Capital is a venture capital firm based in New Delhi that backs women-led companies and startups building for women. It says it has been building the firm since 2018, and its funds are SEBI-registered Category II alternative investment funds.

Who She Capital backs

The home page invites early-stage female founders, and startups building for women, to reach out. The site does not state a cheque size, a fund size or a precise stage band beyond early stage, so treat it as a small early-stage investor and ask before assuming a fit. It says it has backed 14 women-led companies, and its portfolio page shows a wide spread of sectors: home goods and decor, consumer food and bakery, hair and jewellery brands, online learning for kids, hospitality training, brain-health AI, a transit retail network and a sports league. It also lists a lingerie brand as its first exit.

How She Capital works with founders

The firm describes itself as nurturing the ideas of visionary founders, and says it provides the financial base, strategic guidance and collaborative network a business needs. It publishes an impact page on diversity, environment, social and governance practices, and says 62% of the employees at its portfolio companies are women. Its team page lists a founder, a managing partner, venture partners, analysts and a marketing and operations team.

Community and the Together event

She Capital runs a founder community that it says has more than 10000 members, with a sign-up on the home page. It also curates Together, an invite-only gathering of founders, investors and industry leaders. The latest edition listed was held in Goa, and the page says attendance needs prior registration and confirmation, with no walk-ins. This is a networking event, not a funding round.

How to pitch

There is no cohort or deadline published. The home page has a Reach out button for early-stage female founders and for startups building for women, and the footer lists a general inbox on the firm's own domain. Send a short, clear note on what you are building, who it serves and where you are, then wait for a reply. The site does not describe a review process or timeline, so do not expect one.

Funds and structure

The footer names two funds: She Capital Fund, managed by She Capital LLP, and SC Founders Fund, managed by She Capital Venture Private Limited. Both are registered with SEBI as Category II alternative investment funds. The site publishes press coverage going back several years, which is the best public view of how the team talks about backing women founders.
