Manufacturing Startup Brandworks Technologies Raises US $4 Million from Roha Family Office in Series A Extension to Fuel AI-Hardware, IoT and Electronics Manufacturing Growth
Mumbai-based electronics manufacturing and design-driven startup Brandworks Technologies is making waves in India’s hardware manufacturing segment. The company has secured an additional US $4 million investment from the Roha Family Office, bringing its Series A round to a total of US $11 million.
This latest tranche of funding underscores the growing investor confidence in Brandworks’ ability to scale manufacturing of AI-hardware, IoT platforms and connected device ecosystems.
Funding Round Details & Timeline:
In August 2025, Brandworks Technologies raised US $7 million in the first tranche of its Series A, led by early-growth VC Cactus Partners with participation from GVFL (Gujarat Venture Finance) and other family offices.
In November 2025, Brandworks secured the additional US $4 million from Roha Family Office, closing the Series A at US $11 million in total.
What the Funding Will Drive:
Brandworks Technologies will deploy the fresh capital to:
Scale its R&D capabilities in AI hardware, IoT devices and connected systems.
Expand design, engineering and operations teams to accelerate product innovation and manufacturing excellence.
Set up a design centre in Taiwan and deepen its manufacturing footprint globally, while driving a “Made-in-India, built-for-the-world” hardware manufacturing model.
Company Background & Market Position:
Founded in 2017, Brandworks Technologies specialises in full-stack electronics manufacturing and R&D integration. The firm develops products across domains including audio systems, charging devices (GaN chargers, power-banks), UPI soundboxes, POS devices, dash-cameras, smart car mirrors and broader IoT hardware.
With its focus on design-driven manufacturing, Brandworks aims to partner with global brands and capture the shift in supply chains toward India as a manufacturing hub for consumer electronics, automotive electronics and renewable energy devices.
Significance for India’s Manufacturing Ecosystem:
The funding milestone for Brandworks reiterates the bullish sentiment around India’s hardware manufacturing story: driven by initiatives like “Make in India”, electronics manufacturing incentives, and the need for localised design + manufacturing ecosystems. Brandworks’ ability to integrate R&D, design and production positions it well to benefit from this structural tailwind.
Investment & Investor Highlights:
Cactus Partners: Led the US $7 million Series A tranche in August 2025.
GVFL and other family offices: Participated in the first round.
Roha Family Office: Invested US $4 million in November 2025, representing confidence from a high-net-worth family office into hardware manufacturing.
Why It Matters:
Hardware manufacturing startups with strong design + manufacturing capabilities are rare in India — Brandworks bridges that gap.
The US $11 million Series A puts Brandworks in a strong position to scale ahead of global competitors, especially in AI/IoT hardware.
The backing by a family office like Roha signals more diversified investor interest beyond just VCs in India’s manufacturing ecosystem.
With global supply-chain shifts, geopolitical tailwinds and India’s ambition in electronics manufacturing, Brandworks is poised to ride a wave of opportunity.
Looking Ahead:
Brandworks Technologies will likely focus its next phase on:
Securing large OEM/ODM contracts with international brands for audio, IoT, automotive electronics.
Deepening its manufacturing operations, possibly expanding beyond India and Taiwan.
Developing proprietary IP (intellectual property) in AI hardware and connected devices to differentiate from commodity contract manufacturers.
Leveraging the US $11 million funding to build scale, operational excellence, and global go-to-market outreach.
This milestone of US $4 million from Roha Family Office (on top of US $7 million earlier) for Brandworks Technologies reflects a strong outlook for India’s advanced electronics manufacturing startups.
