The birth of Kuber Ventures is rooted in a story of experience, global leadership, and an unyielding passion for innovation and entrepreneurship. At its core are two industry leaders, Alok Kumar and Karunjit Kumar Dhir , who have spent over two decades at the forefront of the technology sector, driving global transformation for businesses across diverse industries. Their entrepreneurial journey, seasoned by both success and the invaluable lessons learned from failure, culminated in the creation of Kuber Ventures—a venture studio that is redefining how startups are built, scaled, and sustained.
A Journey of Innovation and Leadership
In 2017 and 2018, the spark that would eventually lead to the formation of Kuber Ventures was ignited. Both Alok and Karun were invited by the family office of SRK Exports—the largest exporter of polished diamonds from India and a highly respected multi-billion dollar diversified conglomerate—to help them embark on their first venture into technology. This was the beginning of SRKay Consulting Group, a new technology enterprise that would become a global leader under their leadership.
Alok Kumar, as the Founder & Managing Director of SRKay, brought with him an expansive vision for how the company could revolutionize the technology and strategy consulting space. Karun, joining as Co-Founder & CEO, lent his deep expertise in global operations, strategy, and scaling businesses across borders.
With their combined experience working across global markets—from the USA, UK, and India to Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines—Alok and Karun took SRKay Consulting Group from an ambitious idea to a thriving business with clients in major markets such as the USA, Canada, India, Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, the Philippines, and Australia.
Their success didn’t go unnoticed. Under their leadership, SRKay Consulting Group was consistently recognized for its remarkable growth and innovative approach:
This rapid rise cemented their reputations as thought leaders and business builders, but it also inspired them to do more—to give back to the global startup ecosystem and share their experiences, learnings, and resources.
Turning Experience into a Venture Studio
The Birth of Kuber Ventures
After achieving significant milestones as entrepreneurs and industry leaders with SRKay Consulting Group, Alok and Karun knew they wanted to do more than simply continue their own business ventures. They wanted to empower other founders, helping them navigate the often-complex world of startups by leveraging their vast expertise and global network. It was at this point that the idea for a Venture Studio took root.
In 2021, they channeled their entrepreneurial success and personal wealth into building Kuber Ventures—a venture studio designed to incubate and accelerate new ventures with high potential, particularly in technology, AI, data, cybersecurity, sustainability, and clean-tech.
Kuber Ventures was founded on the principles that had driven their own success:
- A hands-on approach to venture building
- A deep understanding of global markets
- A proven track record of scaling businesses rapidly and sustainably
As serial entrepreneurs themselves, Alok and Karun play an active role in every venture Kuber incubates, often taking on the role of Co-Founder or Co-Builder in the startups they partner with. This unique approach sets Kuber Ventures apart from traditional investors. They don’t just invest capital—they immerse themselves in the journey, working side by side with founders to turn ideas into thriving companies.
Building a Global Portfolio of Ventures
Since its inception, Kuber Ventures has incubated and partnered with 10 ventures spread across Singapore, Malaysia, India, Australia, and the USA. These ventures—operating in industries from AI and hydrogen technology to conversational AI platforms—are now collectively valued at over $25 million, and many continue to experience rapid growth year on year.
But, as any successful entrepreneur knows, the road to success is paved with both triumphs and challenges. Alok and Karun have faced their share of failures along the way, but they view these experiences as critical parts of the learning process—helping them become even more effective founders and venture builders.
