A top Executive of S-Squared said S-Squared Capital Investment, a US based investment company has agreed to invest RS 20 crore in special smiles Pvt Ltd which runs dental chain under the brand Vatsalya Dental.
The Founder and Chairman of Srivats Bharadwaj, Vatasalya Dental said “S-Squared Capital will make fresh investments in two tranches over the next two years. The idea is to remove the fear of dentists among children and provide them holistic oral care. The Company opened its paediatric centre called ‘Dento Jungle’ in JP Nagar Bangalore that is designed like a theme park.”
Vatsalya Dental has raised Rs 11 crore funding earlier from S-Squared Capital Investments last year to increase operation, improve technology and hire employees.
A number of dental chains in India have attracted venture capital and private equity funding over the past few years as the segment grows.
