Investment thesis
Kohli Ventures targets exponential growth opportunities arising from rapid technological progress, focusing on artificial intelligence, robotics, biotech and esports. It backs founders of visionary growth-stage ventures and practices a form of 'venture philanthropy', supporting commercial businesses with the potential to substantially improve human life. Building on its frontier-technology roots, the firm has expanded into early-stage investing through a dedicated portfolio developed with the Why You Should Join (WYSJ) platform. These deals are funded from Kohli Ventures' own capital base, with sourcing and execution supported by its extended venture ecosystem, reflecting a strategy of backing category-defining companies that can scale rapidly while delivering real-world impact.
