We are an early stage technology focused Indian registered venture fund. We are eager to invest in and partner with dedicated entrepreneurs that are looking to build world-class market-leading companies by disrupting traditional sectors or solving real life problems for end-users or enterprises using innovative technology-led products or services.
We invest in seed and early stages of technology focussed businesses across industry verticals and are committed to supporting these ventures throughout their early life cycle with initial and follow-on investments in the range of INR 50 lacs to INR 10 crores.
In addition to capitalizing the businesses, we are committed to spending time with the entrepreneurs to build market-leading companies. Our investing team’s extensive operating, investing and entrepreneurial experience coupled with the industry and domain expertise from our network of mentors and advisors is what our portfolio companies can leverage in their journey to build success stories.
We look to invest in and partner with high growth potential technology and technology-backed businesses with following attributes:

Product or beta ready. While we will constantly support you in developing and refining the product, an already developed market-fit product or a beta version gives us comfort and confidence.
Momentum: While we understand that most early stage ventures may need external funding before they go to market, we do like to see some traction in terms of the business growth, be it initial revenue bookings, vendors or partners on-boarded, customers acquired or in discussion stage.
We have a strong investment focus on groundbreaking technology products or technology-backed services or processes across consumer, enterprise, healthcare and deep technology domains.
While entrepreneurs are at the driving seat of the business, we believe we can be your partners and navigators in the journey. We know about the road conditions ahead, we know about the traffic, we know the problem areas of the vehicle and we know about other drivers and their position in the race.

We add value to either solve problems or boost growth and funding is just one of the many ways we support teams. Apart from capitalizing the venture, we provide:
