Investment thesis

The Neythri Futures Fund is a venture fund built to place South Asian women at the center of startup investing, addressing their significant underrepresentation among US VC partners. It brings together operators, entrepreneurs, and investors with diverse industry and functional experience to collectively deploy capital and share expertise. The fund positions South Asian women as central stakeholders, framing itself as a springboard for this community to organize and invest together, and as a new wave of startup investing focused on accelerating the impact of South Asian female trailblazers.
