Scale Venture Partners

Our approach keeps founders at the heart of everything we do. We areConviction-led: We value independent decision-making and lead all our investments. Long-term partners: We stay fully committed to founders' vision, no matter how long it takes. Sector specialists: We each focus on specific sectors to build a deep, informed point of view that fuels our investment strategy and portfolio support. Transparent: We keep founders in the loop and prioritize honest communication, making us partners they never have to second-guess. Engaged: We believe in staying actively involved through meaningful board participation and functional support. Our journey started like many other startups – in a Bengaluru basement 2016 When we set out to raise our first fund, the Indian VC landscape was shaky at best. Investors were cautious, several foreign VC majors had left the ecosystem, and successful exits were hard to come by. Amidst skepticism about the Indian market, we defiantly believed that the "golden decade" of Indian technology was upon us. We saw an opportunity for VC 2.0 in India – one that was stage-focused, expertise-driven, and committed to prioritizing real growth alongside valuations. Undeterred by a tough fundraising climate, we knocked on 1,200 doors to raise Stellaris’ first fund. These early struggles shaped Stellaris’ culture, allowing us to fully resonate with the fundraising challenges faced by early-stage entrepreneurs. 2017 We launched our first fund of $90 million. From the outset, we established a principle of having specialists on our team, enabling us to tap into deep sector knowledge, spot promising opportunities, and provide tailored support to the companies we backed. Out of our 19 investments in our first fund, 9 surpassed a valuation of $100 million, with several others on track to achieve this milestone. 2021 We closed our second fund of $225M and backed 25 companies, many of which are poised to become the leaders of tomorrow. We also had our first significant exit in the portfolio when 6Sense, a US SaaS company, acquired Slintel, in which Stellaris was the first institutional investor. 2023 Our portfolio company, Mamaearth, which we backed at the Series A stage in 2018, successfully completed its IPO. 2024 We launched our third fund of $300M and are now managing over $600M in assets. We're ready to support the next wave of innovative businesses with the same grit and determination that brought us here.

ScaleUps are on the most difficult part of their journey: turning initial viability into exponential growth and long-term success. A decision can mean flight or free fall. That’s where a trusted partner comes in. For over 25 years we’ve partnered with the world’s leading software ScaleUps, providing the capital, operating guidance, and expansive network companies need to propel growth for the long term – and soar.

Our market reach gives executive teams access to networks, customers, resources, data, acquisition targets, and counsel. Our scale provides companies with a platform to win in M&A and organic growth. Experience We’ve seen it all. With over 25 years of operating and investing in software, we know what it takes to build a successful business.

We have invested in more than 90 companies since 2016, including Pinterest, Compass, Hippo, Ro, Carta, Dutchie, Anduril, Varda Space Industries, Ghost, Front, Esusu, OKCredit, and Unqork. Additionally, through our subsidiary fund, New Slate Ventures, we have financed films, documentaries, and limited series that have been acquired by Apple, Netflix, and Disney. Based in New York City, we invest globally. Backstory Sinai Capital Partners was founded in 2017. We raised $100 million and built a talented team of young investors with offices in New York, Palo Alto, and Los Angeles. We made over 90 investments, realized 11 exits, and achieved a 1X return on our first fund within two years. In 2019, we raised $100 million for a subsidiary of Sinai Capital called New Slate Ventures, with the goal of supplying the many players in the streaming wars with independent content. Our films, series, and documentaries won Academy Award nominations, Golden Globes, Grammy’s, and Emmy’s, and were acquired by the likes of Apple, Disney, and Netflix for multiples of their cost. As a solo GP, I believe boutique, disciplined, early-stage funds with effective managers will generate the best returns for investors in this forthcoming innovation cycle. Throughout my career I’ve nurtured relationships across Silicon Valley, Wall Street, Washington DC, and Hollywood, and aim to leverage this access on behalf of the founders I support. Where to Now? We’re currently in the midst of the greatest acceleration of technological progress since 2010 and the advent of mobile/social computing. New frameworks for problem solving are emerging daily aided by artificial intelligence, CRISPR technologies, climate manipulation, and several other radical new fields previously dismissed as science fiction. When we started Sinai, the prevailing wisdom in Silicon Valley was that “hardware was hard” and that software investments provided much better risk-adjusted opportunities. That assumption is becoming less credible in the current venture capital landscape, with space exploration, brain computer interfaces, driverless electric vehicles, autonomous warfare drones, and nuclear fusion companies all appearing to be increasingly within reach, with potentially transformational impacts on civilization. Sinai’s new focus will be on these harder technical problems, as we believe this is where the majority of the value creation for this next venture cycle will emerge. While we still welcome revenue generating SaaS businesses, its become clearer to us that the best returns come from the most non-obvious ideas in undefined markets and categories. Some of our latest investments include Anduril, Varda, Galvanick, Rangeview, Factory.AI, Science.IO, and several others. We seek to invest in 5-10 companies each year, with average check sizes ranging between $1-5M depending on stage. We’re happy to lead seed rounds where we have high conviction, but prefer to collaborate with our friends at top funds across the globe. We are geographically agnostic, but are most active in New York, San Francisco, Miami, London, and the South Bay of Los Angeles.

Our goal is to contribute to the development of a free democratic society, based on equality, freedom and universal welfare.
