A Founder First

Anisha is a 3x founder. She founded Kinis, a digital technology business acquired by US-based Obeo, then built Mydala, one of India's pioneering local commerce platforms, with a presence across India and the UAE. Building and scaling businesses gave her a direct understanding of the decisions founders carry, from finding customers and raising capital to building teams and navigating uncertainty. That experience continues to shape how she invests and works with entrepreneurs. Her early career included working on Springboard during the Clinton Administration in Washington, D.C., helping women entrepreneurs access funding, followed by a role at Centra Software.

Backing Founders Who Others Overlook

Anisha is Founder and Managing Partner of She Capital, founded in 2018 to back high-growth businesses led or co-led by women. Having experienced fundraising as an entrepreneur, she recognised the investment opportunity in exceptional founders who were too often overlooked. She Capital's investments have included Lenskart, Clovia, The Baker's Dozen, Ellementry, BrainSight.AI, Amama, Yatrikart and Trezi. Clovia, subsequently acquired by Reliance, became the fund's first exit. Alongside She Capital, Anisha is an active angel investor, with investments including Arboreal and indē wild, across a range of sectors. Her approach combines investment discipline with a founder's understanding of the ambition, persistence and difficult decisions involved in building a business. She sits on the Executive Committee of IVCA, where she leads the Emerging Managers and Diversity Council.

Building Together

Anisha founded Together in 2022 to bring founders, investors and business leaders into closer conversation, with women founders at its heart. Anchored by an annual gathering in Goa, Together creates time for relationships to develop beyond a pitch or a brief introduction. A conversation can begin over breakfast, continue through a founder circle and pick up again that evening. The community brings together people building businesses, deploying capital and shaping industries. It gives founders access to experience, candid conversations and relationships that can influence what they do next. For Anisha, community building is an ongoing commitment. Her focus is on what happens after the first meeting: the follow-up, the introduction and the decision to work together.

Women in Entrepreneurship

Anisha's work with women entrepreneurs spans investing, mentorship and international networks. Through her longstanding involvement with the Cartier Women's Initiative, she has served as Jury President for the Asia-Oceania region and as a Community Activator for South Central Asia, contributing to its global community of entrepreneurs. Her commitment to greater representation is rooted in her own experience as a founder and investor. Through She Capital, Together and her wider work, she creates opportunities for more women to build ambitious businesses, access capital and develop influential networks.

Speaking and Recognition

Anisha brings the same candour to conversations about entrepreneurship, investing and leadership that she brings to her work with founders. She has spoken at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Slush in Helsinki, WIRED in London and Mobile World Congress in Shanghai. She has appeared as a judge on Amazon Prime Video's Mission Start Ab and MTV's Dropout Pvt. Ltd., and hosts the podcast Cheque, Please. Her perspective is grounded in experience: raising money while building a company, making difficult calls with incomplete information and learning to act before certainty arrives. In 2018, Crunchbase named her among the top 10 women CEOs outside the United States.

Background

Anisha holds an MA and an MBA from American University in Washington, D.C.
