Profile ↗

CIO Angel Network (CAN) is a Mumbai-based members-only angel investment network founded in January 2015 by Anoop Mathur, drawing its members from senior technology professionals (CIOs/CTOs/ICT leaders) at large Indian enterprises. It is explicitly NOT a pooled investment fund; members evaluate deals together but make individual seed-stage investment decisions in technology and tech-enabled startups, operating chapters in Mumbai and Delhi. It supports early-stage companies through fundraising, customer discovery, and access to its investor network.

• ⚑ Not a pooled fund — it is an angel network where members invest individually, so there is no AUM/fund mandate. The published contact email ([contact on file]) uses the founder's own media company domain (Core Media Group / CORE, also founded by Anoop Mathur) rather than the cioangelnetwork.com domain; verified as legitimate — it appears on both the homepage and the official About Us page. Private entity; no government/DFI linkage found.
