We're launching a new kind of venture firm—one that understands the unique strengths of Indian founders and helps them build category-defining companies.
The Indian diaspora represents 32 million entrepreneurs, engineers, and executives globally. Yet dedicated early-stage capital remains scarce. We're here to change that.
Indian-American households have the highest median income in the US at $123K. This community starts 8% of all US startups despite being 1.4% of the population. The potential is massive—and largely untapped.
We believe the next wave of unicorns will come from founders who blend Eastern wisdom with Western execution—building for global markets from day one.
Cross-border commerce is exploding. Enterprise software is being rebuilt. Consumer habits are shifting. Indian founders are uniquely positioned to capture these trends.
Based in Albuquerque with deep roots in both Silicon Valley and Mumbai, we bridge ecosystems that others can't reach. We're not just investors—we're cultural translators.
We're building our inaugural fund to back pre-seed and seed stage founders. Our focus is simple: find exceptional Indian entrepreneurs early and help them scale globally.
$100K - $500K
We write meaningful first checks at pre-seed and seed, with reserves to double down on breakout companies.

• Consumer brands with cultural moats
• Access to 200+ Indian operators

Founder & Managing Partner
Serial entrepreneur with two exits. Angel investor in 20+ startups across the US and India. Previously built and sold an edtech platform to Pearson. Based in Albuquerque, NM with deep networks in Silicon Valley, NYC, and Mumbai. Passionate about democratizing access to venture capital for underrepresented founders.
From Sundar Pichai to Satya Nadella, Indian leaders run the world's most valuable companies. The next generation won't just join these companies—they'll build them.
We see a future where Indian founders don't have to choose between their heritage and their ambitions. Where being based in Albuquerque or Ahmedabad is an advantage, not a limitation. Where "Capital for Patel" isn't just a tagline—it's a movement.
This isn't about favoritism. It's about recognizing an underserved market of exceptional entrepreneurs who happen to share a cultural background that makes them uniquely equipped for the challenges ahead.
If you're building something ambitious, we want to be your first call.
We're actively deploying capital and building our community.
