This scenario depicts the protagonist, Vineet Rai, managing associate of Aavishkaar Venture Management Services (an Indian, early stage VC firm with a concentration on rural, underserved regions and sectors), as he seeks to build on the initial traction of his first enterprise fund and strives to raise a second, bigger, and more challenging fund. The case discusses Rai's "lessons learned" from his first fund (profiled in Case A), and discusses how such lessons have advised a changed way of the Aavishkaar thesis and fund construction. Moreover, it provides a succession of snapshots from prospective LPs in the fund being raised.
