Backing mission-driven entrepreneurs in India since 2008
Early-stage & tech-first startups
Inventus to Athera
At our inception as Inventus India in 2008, the backdrop was nascent - Internet penetration was <5% and the early adopters were just beginning to consume offerings from consumer Internet/enterprise software startups. 90%+ of the funds deployed in India VC were from the US / overseas.
Cut to today, the ecosystem is well past the inflexion point with the number of Unicorns having crossed 100. Indian entrepreneurs, family offices and some institutions are keen to partake in the widespread growth in private markets. All in all, an ideal environment to evolve into an India-centric VC firm.
WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT
Empathy
Founder-friendly VCs who walk the (frequently) lonely, wobbly path with our entrepreneurs.
Back Sustainable Businesses
That thrive even post our association.
Delayed Gratification
Our DNA and a value we share with our entrepreneurs.
Objectivity
Transparent, unbiased interactions with our entrepreneurs.
Moreover, valuations at growth and late-stage deals are coming under pressure.
As Swati Murarka of @AtheraVP said:
"Growth and late-stage deals, ... however, are still slow with performances catching up with valuations. This could take up to a year or more."
