About Joshiz

A holding company built to operate, not to trade.

We own and run twenty-eight entities across seven divisions. There are no outside limited partners, no fund life, and no obligation to sell anything on a schedule.

Structure follows intent.

The company

Joshiz operates at the intersection of capital and engineering. We fund companies, we build them ourselves, and we hold them. Across seven divisions the group manufactures hardware, publishes media, runs applied research programmes, and backs founders at the earliest stage.

The divisions are not a diversification strategy. They are a supply chain. Research produces technology that manufacturing can build; manufacturing gives ventures a production partner that answers internally; media lowers the cost of distribution for everything the group makes. Each part is viable alone and materially stronger inside the group.

We answer to no outside investors and no quarterly cycle. That independence lets us commit capital and attention on the timescale real companies require — a decade, not a fund cycle. It also means we can hold positions that would be indefensible to a committee and stay quiet about work that is better kept quiet.

Six commitments we do not trade away.

Operating principles

  • 01

    Permanent capital

    No fund life, no forced exits. We can hold a company for twenty years if twenty years is what it takes.

  • 02

    Engineering first

    Technical decisions are made by people who ship. Every operating company is led by someone who can read the drawings.

  • 03

    Own production

    We manufacture rather than outsource. Owning the line means owning quality, lead times, and margin.

  • 04

    Compound distribution

    Group media and relationships lower the cost of reach for every company we hold. Attention is an asset we build once.

  • 05

    Discretion by default

    A meaningful share of our work sits under commercial or government confidentiality. We do not publicise what we are asked not to.

  • 06

    Concentration over spread

    Twenty-eight entities, not two hundred. We would rather be deeply useful to a few than nominally present in many.

Built division by division.

How we got here

  • Foundation

    A manufacturing base

    The group starts with industrial production. Joshi LLP and Carbine Systems establish precision manufacturing capability across India.

  • Expansion

    Ventures built in-house

    Aerzoom and Carbine3D are founded to use that production capacity directly, in aerial systems and metal additive manufacturing.

  • Research

    Applied R&D formalised

    USDCLLC, Aervon, and a set of confidential programmes are established in optics, unmanned systems, and advanced materials.

  • Capital

    MLVN Ventures

    An investment arm to back external founders building in the same territory the group already operates in.

  • Distribution

    Media properties

    Seven editorial and analytics properties are brought into the group, giving every company owned distribution.

  • Today

    Seven divisions, five regions

    Manufacturing in India, research and advisory in the United States, and partnership networks across Europe, the Middle East, and Asia-Pacific.
