Start Up Funding

The most important things we consider when looking at an investment

  • An experienced full-time management team including at least a Founder / CEO. Having co-founders is even better.
  • Business developed beyond the concept stage – proof of concept complete or nearly complete.
  • Clearly differentiated value proposition.
  • Capital-light (asset-light) scaling model (does not require purchasing real-estate or other expensive assets).
  • Strategies to build effective distribution and marketing programs.
Other Frequently Asked Questions
In most cases, NO. A certain level of initial execution to demonstrate market demand and the entrepreneur’s commitment are required. We like to invest in ventures with a strong tech spine that have had some degree of customer validation – product in the market, paying customers etc.
While the structure is flexible, simple, low-cost approaches are preferential. A standardized set of terms has been put in place, designed to be fair to the venture and the entrepreneur, with reasonable protections for early-stage investors and a friendly outlook towards future investors.
Once an investment term sheet has been agreed upon, the endeavor is to complete due diligence and close investment documentation within 30 days.
The faster we understand your business, the faster we can move forward. This depends on the following:
  • The differentiating factor in both short and long term for your product/service offering?
  • What are the proposed achievements for the next year? e.g. key milestones, validations, expected learnings.
  • What is the business unit economics – how does your venture make money on each unit sold?
  • What are the key takeaways from competitors or similar organisations in relevant areas, in India or other developing economies? Why will you prevail over regional and national competitors?
  • What does the spending look like so far? What valuable assets have been created with money raised/earned/granted so far?
Yes. We are open to co-investing with like-minded investors.
