Bedrocket Media Ventures

About The Fund

Dia Ventures is a New York City-based early-stage startup advisory and investment firm focused on digital disruption of large legacy industries, with a primary focus on healthcare. It was launched by Sab Kanaujia, a digital pioneer from the media & entertainment (M&E) industry. After having played a key role in the digital disruption of the M&E industry over the last 20 years, which witnessed a fundamental transformation of how all forms of content is created, distributed, consumed and monetized, Sab is committed to bringing a similar transformation in large, antiquated legacy industries that are ripe for disruption as digital technology goes mainstream. Dia Ventures is a theme-based fund with a unique strategy and operating model that fills a critical market need. It will invest in entrepreneurs coming from within healthcare who are operators (vs. pure technologists). In order to maximize the potential of success of its target entrepreneurs, Dia Ventures has over the last three years built a unique platform in India and U.S. The platform will provide entrepreneurs critical resources in order to rapidly build and scale their businesses, in addition to providing the fund a targeted deal flow. The fund will have a high-touch operating model, committing up to half of its time on helping build portfolio businesses. To enable this model, the fund will make only a small number of high-conviction investments each year.
