Sapphire Ventures

Sapphire Ventures is based in Karawal Nagar. It’s right on the edge of Delhi and Haryana, which makes for an interesting location. The zip code is 110094. We are a small venture, mostly focusing on local projects and business needs. It’s not a fancy glass building. We work out of a more modest space. Karawal Nagar is a very crowded and energetic place. There’s always something happening outside the windows. We deal with various business ventures, mostly helping people get things moving. It’s a lot of talking and meeting with people from the area. We don't use big words or try to sound more important than we are. We are just local people working for other local people. Sometimes we have to travel a bit because of our location near the border. The traffic can be a nightmare, but we’re used to it by now. Our team is small, just a few of us who have known each other for a long time. We trust each other. We don’t have a HR department or anything like that. If there’s a problem, we just talk it out over lunch. It’s a very direct way of doing things. We’ve been in this spot for a few years and we don’t plan on moving. It suits us just fine. The 110094 zip code covers a lot of ground. Karawal Nagar is always humming with noise. You can hear the motorcycles and the vendors all day long. We have a small window that looks out onto the street. It’s a good way to see what’s happening. We don’t have any big investors or board meetings. It’s just us making the calls.
