INVESTMENT THESIS
We invest in the fast-growing Indian startup ecosystem and discover promising companies and founders at the pre-seed, seed, and pre-Series A-stages through my network of founders and seed investors spread across Silicon Valley and India.

You will get access to some of the best-in-class deals in the Indian startup ecosystem as part of this syndicate. There are 3 types of deals we primarily look for and invest in.

One :

The first group are founders we know well; in this business founders are everything. we are very comfortable backing superstars based on little more than their involvement (though that rarely happens as they almost always have a great idea.)

Two:

The second group is companies in sectors where we have a great deal of experience such as FinTech, AI Companies, Internet, Logistics, DeepTech, Enterprise SaaS, ConsumerTech, Data Companies. We look hard for original, defensible ideas that have the potential to become huge. I would rather lose on a bunch of companies than miss out on one of the big ones.

Third :

The third type is where we can spend a great deal of time with the entrepreneur and build a longitudinal understanding of them as individuals and the dynamic of their markets.

Digital India: business Model for Bharat Customers.
EduTech: building Products for Indian Students.
HealthTech: Improving healthcare quality and innovative healthcare models.
