About the Company

Meraki Labs

Startup studio co-building early ventures

Meraki Labs operates as one of India's first startup studios, building and funding companies by joining forces with founders from the ground up. It provides an early-stage first cheque of 200K–1M and a plug-and-play founding team, working hands-on with 2–4 founders each year. The studio sources ideas across sectors but often focuses on education, sustainability, and inclusion, and backs mission-driven ventures. Unlike traditional investors, Meraki Labs co-builds companies with founders, taking an active role in shaping the product, team, and strategy from the start. Its goal is to create durable, purpose-driven companies by providing both funding and a ready-to-operate founding team to increase their chances of success.
