Bollywood actors and actress are also investing in startups. Earlier the actors used to act in movies only but now time has changed and they are doing business. They are also investing in startups, running their own company, buying IPL team etc.
Yesterday, I came to know that Anil Kapoor has also invested in Indi.com, a global video social network. Indi.com allows individuals and companies to create and monetise content by sharing videos. Artists, retailers, NGOs, celebrities and individuals can connect with fans and supporters, and interact with them using video.
Indi.com started in 2012 in South California by e-commerce veterans Neel Grover and Greg Giraudi, both associated with Buy.com, Rakuten.com, and Bluefly.com and it was officially launched across the US in 2013. Grover had been in talks with kapoor for over a year and that at first, he was only planning to back the product as an investor.
According to Grover, Indi's video platform is supported by advanced inbuilt e-commerce capabilities and reaches out to senior level management of Fortune 500 companies. while users from 200 countries can access the platform. Indi will launch with an open platform, allowing companies to start their own channels.
