Summary

VC Dekho tracks 334 public funding notices tagged to Bengaluru. These are not press releases we wrote — they are the same disclosed rounds founders use to see who is actually writing cheques in the city, with amounts and investors when the notice named them.

Right now Artificial Intelligence (AI) accounts for about 24% of Bengaluru rounds in our feed. Accel shows up on more of those notices than any other matched fund (20 rounds), which usually means they are worth researching before you cold-email a generic partner list.

Recent names on the board include Even Healthcare, Scimplify, OXG Space. Open any company for the full investor list and a link into the fund directory when we already profile that fund.

What VC Dekho observed

Artificial Intelligence (AI) leads the mix

81 of 334 disclosed rounds carry a Artificial Intelligence (AI) sector tag (24%). Founders in the city usually win by matching this wedge — or by showing a sharp contrast story if you are outside the hot sector.

Seed is the most common stage label

78 notices named Seed. That does not mean every company is “typical” for the stage — it tells you what language public notices use in Bengaluru right now.

Accel is the most repeated fund name

When a fund appears on 20 separate notices, it is often actively deploying — not just lending a logo. Compare their thesis and cheque size on VC Dekho before you add them to a outreach list.

19 notices in the latest month window

Our feed may not yet include every notice for the current calendar month — this window uses the newest month we have for the city.

Founder takeaway

What to do with this

In the latest month we have (October 2026), Artificial Intelligence leads Bengaluru disclosures and Accel shows up most often on those notices. Treat that as a short research list: read a few comparable rounds, open the funds that repeat, then shortlist partners who actually write cheques in your sector.
