We are happy to announce the first close of our $250 million Growth Capital (GC) fund, having raised over $130 million from large established global investors. This marks a pivotal moment in our mission to drive transformative growth across India’s digital landscape. We believe growth capital is an underserved space, and there is an untapped opportunity for a firm that could harness operator experience and know-how to help breakout businesses achieve scale. Playbook is born out of this belief: we leverage the experience of our senior team, operating partners and advisors to help growing companies master the Art of Scale. We’re grateful to our investors for their endorsement of our team and strategy. We look forward to the incredible journey ahead!
