We search and evaluate each idea / startup using the sniper or finely targeted
approach to ensure the highest probability of success and achievement for our
investees in the global arena. We invest in cutting-edge technovations that have a potential to be disruptive
across the world. We like a ‘High Risk- High Return’ portfolio, managing it with diligence and due care and having lots of fun in
the process. We believe in engaging directly with the Founder’s and people involved in running the business. A key factor for us in due
diligence is checking the market viability and scalability of the product or
service.
We believe in creating synergies between our investees and technologies to help
them grow through collective strength and knowledge beyond their individual
potential. Collaborative partnerships with other Angels and Incubators in
various countries for Co-investment and cross-pollination of ideas across
technopreneurs, technology platforms and markets around the world are hallmarks
of our investment and growth model.
We take a minority stake in the Investee companies, generally ranging from 10-25
% of equity participation, allowing the Founders/Entrepreneurs the freedom to
run and drive the business. We do not interfere nor assist in the day to day
management of the Investee but we are happy to provide valuable strategic
support & advice including a network of contacts on a need basis. We also help our
investees in follow-on funding or connect them with other investors across the
world. Each investment is special and personal to us.
We invest in people that create Ideas in genesis, Ideas in discovery, Ideas in motion and Ideas in traction.
