History[edit]
Inclov was established in 2016 by Kalyani Khona, and Shankar Srinivasan later joined as a co-founder. It is based in Gurugram, India. The application is available in Hindi, English, and Punjabi languages.[2] Khona initially started the business offline as a marriage bureau in Mumbai named Wanted Umbrella in 2014, and after receiving favourable feedback from the differently-abled community and a round of crowd-funding, went online with the Inclov name, and Srinivasan as co-founder, in 2016.[3]
In 2017, Inclov raised pre-Series A funding.[4]
Idea[edit]
The idea behind Inclov is to create an inclusive place for people with disabilities to find their marriage partner, and counter social inhibitions regarding disabilities in India.[2]Social Spaces is an initiative spread across India by Inclov to organize accessible meet-ups of differently-abled people.[5][6]
