The playbook behind the work

Founder-led.
Built alongside you.

SVS stays deliberately small so the work can be challenged, sharpened, and made useful with direct attention.

Soham Jani, SVS founderSOHAM JANI

Founder and venture partner

Built from a founder’s own playbook.

SVS is based on the same principles Soham used to turn early interests into ventures, build meaningful proof, and create opportunities through the work itself.

The point is not to reproduce someone else’s outcome. It is to learn how to make the decisions that turn a loose interest into a body of work with a real point of view.

The working standard

Experience is evidence, not a guarantee.

Soham’s experience is a reference point for the system. It is not a promise that students will receive the same admissions, venture, or career outcomes.
