Investment thesis

Breathe Capital invests in early-stage, tech-centric companies in India (and SE Asia), from formation round up to Series A, typically 6-18 months before a Series A where it can foresee at least a 2x valuation step-up. It is sector-agnostic but requires a verifiable TAM of $5 billion or more. The firm evaluates founders on domain expertise, integrity and agency, the quality of co-investors, early traction, scalable unit economics, velocity to competitive barriers, and a clear exit path to IPO, M&A or secondary sale within 4-7 years. It aims to back 25-30 companies and be a leading shareholder through Series A, supporting founders with sourcing, diligence, capital raising, reporting, community and ancillary services.
