Into the Investor’s Mind by build3

​Rainmatter has quietly built one of the most unique investing platforms in India, backing mission-driven startups across climate, health and financial wellbeing. Their approach stands apart from traditional venture capital, with a strong focus on long-term value creation and deep founder alignment.

​In this Investor Spotlight session, we sit down with Dinesh Pai, who leads investments at Rainmatter, in conversation with Varun Chawla, serial entrepreneur and angel investor. Together, they will unpack Rainmatter’s investing philosophy, how they evaluate founders and what it takes to build companies that solve meaningful problems at scale.

​This session is designed for founders looking to get an honest look behind the curtains. We will explore how investors choose between competing businesses, the subtle cues that shape first impressions and what truly makes a founder stand out.

​Expect a conversation grounded in real examples and honest reflections from their combined investing journey.

​There will also be an opportunity to get your questions answered during a live Q&A.
