Founders Story
Parth Shah
Parth Shah’s journey in finance began at just 15, when he started managing his family’s
wealth a spark that grew into building one of India’s most forward-thinking alternative
investment platforms.
A Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA) by qualification, Parth began his career in investment
banking in Mumbai, where exposure to startups fueled his interest in business models,
investor psychology, and deal structuring. Interacting with numerous investors, he
identified key challenges in startup investing—high entry barriers, limited access, and
managing risk versus reward.
Driven to bridge these gaps, he founded The Venture Guys (TVG) in 2019, operational since
2021. The platform has evaluated over 6,700 startups, onboarded 120+ ventures, and
facilitated funding for 30 companies across nine countries—strengthened by partnerships with
networks like TiE and BNI.
Building on this foundation, Parth launched TVG Funds to offer investors secured,
diversified access to high-potential startups and alternative assets. Guided by discipline
and foresight, his mission remains simple yet powerful: to make wealth creation both
intelligent and secure.
