Investment thesis
nVentures is an early-stage VC investing in B2B startups across South Asia and Southeast Asia. The team members are themselves founders, operators, and builders who have raised capital, pivoted, scaled teams, and gone through exits, and this experience informs how they invest. They back founders with high integrity, urgency, and the resolve to stay through difficult stages, emphasizing risk-taking and skin in the game. They aim to provide more than capital, offering perspective, mentorship, customer introductions, and distribution connections. The firm runs two funds: Fund I focused on B2B fintech, and Fund II focused on globally relevant B2B enterprise tech.
