Omnes Capital

We're looking for the rebels. We invest in the underdogs. The contrarians. The resilient. We want to write the untold stories that rewire prevailing ways of thinking and doing. We’re a VC firm that helps build, not bet on, companies transforming massive industries. We started from an MIT dorm room during the Great Recession and spent the last decade helping build industry-leading companies, often bringing them their biggest, million-dollar customers. Everyone told us we were crazy when we got started. Now we have offices in Boston, San Francisco, and London. We like defying the crowd, following our instincts, and proving them wrong. We love if you do too. We admire people who think really big. Those who want to craft legendary, contrarian companies worth $5B or more. Those who have an irrational belief in your vision. We are very patient and have both youth and experience on our side, and we are hungry to build. We lead Seed, Series A, and early Series B rounds. We prefer B2B companies tackling large traditional industries and/or commercializing research from top-tier groups. We are generalist, but themes that excite us include: human-machine convergence (augmentation and automation) consumer-enterprise interface (digitalization of the consumer experience) enterprise agility (‘real-time’ actionable insights from novel data sources) new industrial revolution (use of sensors and software in industry) security of all data (more digitalization, more security problems) software eating healthcare (making delivery more accurate, efficient, efficacious) generation Z (the future) How much are you looking to raise?$0 - 3M (Pre-Seed / Seed): We write small checks into multiple companies at the Seed stage. Our goal is to work closely with you to determine whether we should continue our investment at the Series A. Historically, we have achieved a 2:1 ratio in terms of Seed investments to Series A follow-on rounds. $3 - 10M (Series A): We lead $3-10M rounds at the Series A stage. Our core investments are either follow-on investments from companies we’ve seeded or first checks into new additions to our portfolio. As the lead institutional investor in your company, we will work closely with your executive team and board and serve as a true partner in your growth. $10 - 20M (Series B): We lead $10-20M rounds at the Series B stage. A portion of these investments will be follow-ons from our Series A companies, but many will be new additions to our portfolio. We partner with entrepreneurs who are uninterested in raising artificially inflated rounds and who seek active partners to help hire executives, build boards, and optimize growth strategy. How we help We don’t bet. We build – and that starts from our first interaction with each entrepreneur. We work tirelessly to add value to the companies in our portfolio, and we base that strategy around four core pillars. Customer Acquisition: We help you kick down doors, secure early pilots, and win contracts with key customers. Building Go-to-Market Teams: We work closely with you to find and win the best talent for your most critical roles. Fundraising Strategies: We guide you as you prepare and pursue additional capital to build and grow. Board-Level Strategy: We support you in making decisions as an experienced voice at the table, and we bring in other players who can add outsized value.

Our thesis The physical and the virtual have been on a path of convergence ever since the first computer was invented. But now, the technological baseline has developed enough for it to truly take place. At NGP Capital, we welcome this convergence and the magic it can create. We believe the 2020s will be a decade of ‘The Great Convergence’–a decade that will produce the next generation of iconic technology companies. Who we work with We back early-stage B2B companies from Series A onwards in Europe, the US, Israel, and China within enterprise software, industrial tech, cybersecurity, and infrastructure. Experience Applications and use cases enabled by the Convergence From industrial automation to immersive applications for enterprises to collaborate and connect with customers and employees. The Convergence of the digital and physical will create a more empowered human experience. Example applications: AI co-pilots, digital twins, immersive collaboration and productivity tools. Infrastructure Technology infrastructure powering convergence The infrastructure upon which exciting new applications can be built, the tools to allow data to be processed and consumed, as well as the cybersecurity that allows the world to safeguard their data and identities. Example applications: XR developer tools, streaming data infrastructure, foundation AI, digital identity protection, edge computing. Interaction Devices and software that bridge the gap between the physical and the virtual Devices that allow humans to access virtual environments, sensors that draw data from the physical world to build insights, and robotics that translate virtual input into physical output. Example applications: XR glasses, robotics, sensors, data capture technology…

After managing two successful funds, we now present YourNest Innovative Products VC Fund III. Focused on disruptive technologies to enhance the way mankind leverages the value of time, this US$ 75 mn fund will invest in startup founders across a spectrum of DeepTech domains: AI, IoT, Robotics, AR/VR/MR, Dev. Tools, Edge Cloud and other Digital products. As always, our intent is to create an opportunity for Indian entrepreneurs to scale into global markets with IP-led innovations: many of our portfolio companies in YourNest VC Fund II have secured patents and attracted customers in international markets. As a pioneering, pre-Series A, early-stage venture capital fund established in 2011 to support audacious startups building life-changing businesses, YourNest strongly believes in the human capability and works with the dictum of ‘what is impossible today is routine tomorrow’. We believe, too, that we are Challengineers: a team that actively pushes boundaries and engineers outcomes, standing shoulder to shoulder with our founders and supporting them with ‘Nurture Capital’. With an established network of professionals, innovators, business leaders, advisors and mentors, we offer the most enabling eco-system for any startup whose business is validated by customers. Our team prides itself on identifying committed entrepreneurs with the highest level of integrity, enabling their business ambitions and helping them to scale for international markets. In 2020, we launched our fast-track funding program SOAR which invested in five startups. The year also saw us exiting Uniphore and SmartQ from our first fund – YourNest Angel Fund – with a 0.7x DPI. Between the two funds, we are confident of multiple exits to deliver significant returns to our investors in the foreseeable future. Investment Thesis With the rise of entrepreneurs and the growth of startups in the past few years, we believe there are critical sectors, rooted in technology, that will fuel the next level of disruption in the coming decade. YourNest Innovative Products Fund-III will primarily seek to invest in enterprise-oriented, innovative, IP-led, tech-product startups. Its mission is to select products that are built around emerging technologies and have applications at scale. These product companies could be in sectors including Mobile Internet, Cloud Technology, Automation of Knowledge Work, Low-code or No-code Platforms, AI-based Cybersecurity, IOT, Edge Computing, Digital Twinning, Autonomous Technologies, Robotics, Electronic System Design & Manufacturing (ESDM). The focus of the Fund will be to invest in unlisted companies. The investment may start at an early seed stage and continue investing in promising companies at various stages of their growth. One or more rounds are likely to be made with co-investment from other investor(s) who may be an individual or an institution or an AIF or international investor such that the risk and reward of the portfolio company’s success is shared. ESG Policy Statement The YourNest Capital Advisors Pvt Ltd. i.e. Investment Manager (“IM”) of the Fund, commits to being a responsible investor, considering environmental, social and governance issues across all its investments. The IM is committed to comply with its ESG policy, applicable laws of the land and to be responsive to existing and emerging ESG concerns. We adhere to our responsibility to people and the planet while setting the stage for long-term success. Through ESG integration in our investment approach, we will endeavour to maximise business and investment opportunities. ESG integration will enable us to grow and improve the companies in which we invest, for long-term value generation opportunities for the benefit of all stakeholders. At the same time, we believe that ESG integration will help mitigate any liability, credit, market or reputation risks emanating from such issues. Nurture Capital Philosophy YourNest is a sharply focused early-stage DeepTech VC fund from India. The first fund established in 2012, raised US$ 14 mn and has several companies in the portfolio that have had multiple up-rounds and are on their way to a 4X+ return. Having completely invested its first two funds, YourNest is currently raising its third fund of US$ 75 mn to invest in Indian start-ups with a focus on DeepTech domains like AI, IoT, Robotics, AR/VR/MR, Dev. Tools, Edge Cloud and other Digital products. The YourNest team combines what may well be India’s widest access to prospective investees along with a rigorously prudent selection process that enables us to stay true to our investment thesis of nurturing high-potential entrepreneurs. In addition, we give our investors transparent access and exposure to high-growth, under-the-radar tech start-ups in India. In a country where entrepreneurship is encouraged but comes with its own challenges, the Indian DeepTech eco-system is rapidly evolving.
