Focus

Investment Focus.

 

Stage

We are late seed to series C investors with a typical first check of $1-3M. We do consider post series C opportunities which meet most other criteria.

Geography

We invest across the US as well as other countries. We prefer startups which can scale globally.

Strong Team

We believe that a strong and stable founding team is most critical to a startup’s success. We look for and invest in serial entrepreneurs, domain experts and leaders.

Technology orientation

We primarily invest in businesses with software enabled products and services but are open to investing in hardware-as-a-service (HaaS) startups with significant software play.

Business model

We prefer B2B business models but open to select B2C models as well.

Capital Efficiency

We are not fans of “growth for the sake of growth” trends. We look for capital efficient mind-sets and business models which can scale.

verticals

We are expert generalist and mostly vertical agnostic. However, we prefer not to invest in digital assets and sectors with heavy regulatory and R&D aspects.

Role

We play an active role in our companies, where appropriate, and take lead roles in ~15% of our portfolio.

culture

We assign high value to authenticity, grit, transparency, integrity, inclusion and a mindset of holistic approach to business creation and success.
