About

I invest at Orios Venture Partners, working with founders from Seed to Series B in Fintech, Consumer and B2B Manufacturing. I like to think of myself as part investor, part sparring partner and part growth buddy, helping startups sharpen their strategy, avoid common pitfalls and scale faster. I’m passionate about the Indian startup ecosystem and the mix of chaos, ambition and jugaad that drives it. Whether it is fintech infrastructure, factory floors or consumer brands, I believe tech is reshaping how India builds, buys and lives. If you are a founder chasing a big dream, an investor sharing notes, or just someone who believes chai is the original energy drink, I’d love to connect. You can reach me at sudhanshu@oriosvp.com.
