About

We’re here for entrepreneurs who eat, sleep and drink their business (and occasionally watch Star Wars).

We’re always there to work alongside these passionate folks, and not above them, to help them succeed. We either lead a round, or get in the game as co-investors. Nothing less suffices.

So, who’s the face behind the fund? The OG VC?

Ankit Kedia, former promoter of Manjushree Technopack Ltd., largest manufacturers of rigid plastics packaging in the entire South Asia region. If you’ve ever held a bottle of Coke in your hand, it’s Manjushree who made it.

The company was divested to Advent International in 2018.

Spark Capital

We know there are no playbooks or rulebooks or formulas. Your culture is your company. It’s not about us. Nobody runs your company like you. Listening works. We have our own style. Products can make markets. Pattern-matching is for non-believers. Pitch decks aren’t everything. There’s no single right way to do this, but there are some pretty wrong ones. We invest in products we love, people, experiences, crazy, dreams, design, details, brains, reality, unreality, reinvention, new markets, weird stuff, The Future™, guts, independence, hustle, distinction, art, humanness, idealists, iconoclasts, oddities, optimism, communities, creation, surprises, technologists with the heart of an artist, each other. We love this job. To see impossible ideas made real. Not following the herd. Not being jerks. Committing. Having our minds blown. Sweating the details. Products - and actually using them. Swimming upstream. To prove the exceptions. Winning your way. Left and right brain. Form and function. The ups and downs and twists and turns of the decade-long journey. The chutzpah of founders. Dogs. We are here to do this with you.
