Koo site that Indian ministers are moving to has Chinese investor, founder admits

Microblogging app Koo, which has gained traction in the last few days amid the Indian government’s tussle with Twitter, has a Chinese investor that is on its way out, the platform’s Chief Executive Officer Aprameya Radhakrishna said.

“Shunwei [Capital] had invested in the earlier brand Vokal,” Radhakrishna said. “We have pivoted our business and focused on Koo..they [Shunwei] are on their way out. They are being bought out by other people. We are a truly Atmanirbhar Bharat app.”
