Introduction
TurboHire is strongly funded and backed by global investors and successful entrepreneurs.
After raising $1 million in a successful seed funding round in November 2020 and a pre-Series A round in September 2022, TurboHire has now raised $6 million in Series A funding led by IvyCap Ventures, which backs high-potential early-stage companies.
The journey began in 2020 with Venkata N Peri joining as a Mentor and Advisor, and Prashant Gupta as an Investor and Board Advisor. Early backing came from global ventures like Pentathlon Venture, Kia Ora Ventures, and esteemed individual investors such as Monish Darda, Sanjay Balram, and Prabir Jha.
In the pre-Series A round, we further welcomed the support of Pentathlon, Chennai Angels, T-Fund, Purvansh Holdings, Mumbai Angels, Hyderabad Angels, and several seasoned angel investors including Jayesh Ranjan, BVR Mohan Reddy, Taj Haslani, Leela Kaza, and N Maran.
The latest Series A round marks a significant milestone in TurboHire’s growth journey and reinforces our commitment to transforming enterprise hiring globally.
