Mint Mumbai
|October 10, 2025
Andreessen Horowitz, one of the world's biggest venture capital funds, is setting up an office in Bengaluru, multiple people familiar with the development said.
Its San Francisco-based general partner Anish Acharya is leading the India hiring for the fund, which has backed iconic names like Airbnb, Facebook and OpenAI, the people cited above said on the condition of anonymity.
The idea for the VC fund, better known as al6z, is to scout for early-stage deals in the artificial intelligence (AI)-focused and software-as-a-service (SaaS) firms being built out of India that are servicing global clients, said a person with knowledge of its plans.
