Plenome Technologies, a startup incubated at IIT Madras, has raised ₹6.5 crore in a seed funding round backed by a mix of domestic and international investors. The round was led by Ovington Capital Partners (Luxembourg), with participation from UAE-based AADI and angel investor Manish Gandhi.
The funds will be used to accelerate Plenome’s expansion into international markets and advance the deployment of its proprietary Blockchain-AI stack, which is designed to serve critical sectors such as healthcare, organ donation, and remote voting.
Founded by Prof. Prabhu Rajagopal—a Shanti Swarup Bhatnagar Awardee—alongside Vijayaraja Rathinasamy and Anirudh Varna, Plenome is building secure, scalable, and interoperable digital infrastructure for applications handling sensitive data.
Its flagship solution ‘BlockTrack OrganEase’ is currently undergoing trial runs in collaboration with a state-level transplant authority, aiming to streamline organ donation workflows. Meanwhile, its remote voting platform ‘BlockVote’, which has already been successfully deployed at IIT Madras, is being pitched for large-scale enterprise and institutional elections.
Additionally, Plenome is piloting its AI-powered healthtech suite ‘Ashwin’, focused on structured and multilingual data capture in dental clinics, with expansion plans into eye care, cosmetic, and fertility sectors.
With its distributed ledger technology (DLT)-based backend and AI-driven front end, Plenome aims to deliver end-to-end control over data creation, diagnostics, and governance, while ensuring user privacy and system interoperability.
The startup’s focus on digital trust infrastructure comes at a time when regulatory scrutiny around data ownership and compliance is intensifying across healthcare and civic tech domains.
