|November 13, 2024
Anup Jain and Rajeev Suri, former managing partners of Orios Venture Partners, have launched a $75 million fund to back a mix of early and late-stage startups in fintech, climate and sustainability and consumer-driven B2C startups under their new investment vehicle—Blue Green Ventures.
"The fund size can increase up to $100 million including the green shoe option," Jain said in an interview with Mint. The new fund is backed by global CEOs and CXOs from Fortune 500 firms alongside Indian startup entrepreneurs, he added without disclosing names. The fund has received nearly 4/5th of its commitments from domestic investors.

RSS AND ITS 100 YEARS OF SERVICE TO THE NATION
A hundred years ago, on the sacred occasion of Vijayadashami, the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh was founded. This was not the creation of something entirely new. It was a newer manifestation of an ancient tradition, where India's eternal national consciousness expresses itself periodically, in different forms, to face the challenges of the times. In our times, the Sangh is the embodiment of that timeless national consciousness. It is the good fortune of our generation of swayamsevaks that we are witnessing the Sangh's centenary. To mark this glorious journey of a 100 years, the Government of India has released a special postage stamp and commemorative coin.
