Impactpreneurs Fund
The Gap
Traditional venture capital is optimized for speed, scale, and software. Grassroots innovation does not fit neatly into that model. At the same time, a new class of creators, operators, and professionals are looking to invest with purpose but do not have access to verified, on-ground opportunities.
There is no infrastructure that connects these two worlds with trust, transparency, and discipline.
I am exploring how capital can be redesigned to reach people solving real problems at the grassroots level.Across India, individuals are working on soil regeneration, waste recycling, water conservation, and sustainable livelihoods. Many of these solutions already operate with revenue through B2B, B2C, or community-driven models. What they lack is not intent or ability, but access to structured, patient capital and credibility.Impactpreneurs Fund is a concept for a fund and digital platform that connects these grassroots founders with creator-investors and professionals who want to back real solutions in exchange for future equity or revenue share.This is not charity.
This is not fast capital.
This is long-term funding designed for real-world systems.
It all begins with an idea

Meeting Sonam Wangchuk
& SECMOL, Leh
During Ryosho’s early journey, I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Sonam Wangchuk, pioneer of sustainability in India, at SECMOL, Leh. Over a simple cup of tea overlooking the Himalayas, we discussed the vision behind Ryosho®
- a conversation filled with humility, deep listening, and quiet wisdom.Visiting SECMOL (Students’ Educational and Cultural Movement of Ladakh) was a profound learning experience. The campus is built on low-cost, solar-heated, earth-based architecture that sustains warmth even in extreme winters. More inspiring was its philosophy, admitting students who have failed exams and empowering them through real-world education and self-sufficiency.I also had an interactive session with students from Classes 6–10, discussing the journey of turning waste wood into meaningful products, the challenges faced, and the thinking behind Ryosho®’s logo.
Their curiosity, responsibility, and democratic way of living left a lasting impression.A day filled with learning, humility, and renewed belief that true education and sustainability begin with curiosity and doing.
