Yuvraj Singh — Founder

With more than 550 match appearances and 12,000 international runs, international cricketer, entrepreneur and philanthropist, Yuvraj Singh has been one of the finest match-winners to don the Indian jersey. A star performer ever since his youthful debut, he continued to win hearts globally with his sportsmanship and spirit. The left-hander has made tremendous contributions to the country over the course of a 20-year international career. A cancerous tumour that had developed in his lungs — took him away from a sport he loved so dearly. His journey battling cancer motivated him to be a change-maker in India’s healthcare system. After a successful recovery, he once again donned the national colours and played his career best — amongst other milestone moments. His journey on and off the cricket pitch continued to be one of strength and utmost determination. YouWeCan Foundation was set up in 2012, and after his retirement in 2019 — Yuvraj has been leading his Foundation on its mission to empower all people to fight cancer through awareness, prevention, early detection, patient support and survivor empowerment. Additionally, he spends time mentoring startup founders and working closely with startups that he invested in through YouWeCan Ventures. YouWeCan Ventures is an early-stage fund that he founded over seven years ago. Some of his notable investments include Wellversed, Healthians, HoloSuit, EazyDiner and JetSetGo. He hopes to find inventive and collaborative ways to change lives for the better.
