Commenting on the announcement, Vivek said, “The entrepreneurial ecosystem in India needs a concept like The Vault, where entrepreneurs not only get access to instant funding but also gain mentorship from established Indian entrepreneurs with a proven track record of success.”

Rahul Singh, Founder & CEO, The Beer Cafe, is an entrepreneur who mortgaged his only house to fund his business vision of establishing an all-day beer-focused dining destination. He said, “My own venture started off as a dream and I know first-hand the kind of hardships any entrepreneur can face. I applaud The Vault for demystifying the investment and mentoring process through its novel approach.”

Anupam Mittal, Founder & CEO, People Group, owns several successful internet-based businesses such as cabs, Shaadi.com, Makaan.com, and mobile internet company Mauj Mobile. Anupam will also be associated with the show as a guest investor. Agreeing with his fellow investor's comment, he further added, “The Vault, apart from its obvious infotainment value, is also a social responsibility aimed at nurturing entrepreneurship across the country by educating viewers about how businesses are often created from scratch with nothing but a vision to change things.”
