Who we are ?

- Verona is an authenticated matchmaking community designed exclusively for the modern, global Indian. We're on a mission to foster fulfilling partnerships that last lifetimes. In a country where dating app disillusionment abounds, Verona makes the matchmaking process delightful-and effective.

- Verona was founded by three serial entrepreneurs Mr. Poshak Agrawal, Mr. Rahul Subramaniam, and Mr. Khusnud Shahidi, and backed by some of the biggest names in global technology, such as Mr. Michael Novogratz (ex-Fortress Investment Group, CEO of Galaxy Group Investments) & Mr. Rishi Jaitly (ex-Twitter CEO for Asia, Middle East, and Africa).

- Security and Science make the basis of Verona where before matchmaking there will be Fintech-grade authentication to ensure fraud detection. Through a deep appreciation for the science of compatibility, with Verona, we will be using AI for matchmaking based on an individual's core & shared values.
