VII Ventures is a venture capital group investing in entrepreneurs that are accelerating a shift towards a more sustainable and circular economy. We have a proven track-record of nurturing companies and providing our investors with superior returns on their capital. Our strategy is built on putting together diversified portfolios of technology-based ventures led by winners in their segments and supporting those investments through to a successful exit. Our passion is finding those winning companies that focus on solving complex problems. This can be anything from leveraging technology in India’s grocery market through to the production of melanin to produce new energy sources. We help these start-ups by developing long-term strategies that support ambitious growth and create lasting value. Our global portfolio includes companies in the U.S, India, Canada and Europe. The firm has three General Partners and to date has invested in more than 14 leading start-ups. Our Model Invest in winners: Through our seasoned leadership team and robust due diligence, we identify and invest in those companies that have potential to become winners in their segments. Help them scale: We help these companies refine and productize their offering to expand into new markets. We advise Boards and CEOs on making key strategic decisions, defining growth strategies, and attracting other global investors. Successful exit: Every start-up is different, and an exit strategy will always depend highly on the situation. We will work with the company to identify the best exit event including mergers and acquisitions (M&A), initial public offering (IPO), and private offering (Secondary exits).

Capital for an economy that respects planetary limits. Some generations have built cathedrals. Some have navigated across oceans and expanded the frontiers of the known world. Others have had to rebuild war-torn continents. Our generation’s greatest challenge is equally immense: to create an economic system that respects the planet’s limits, and overcome the ecological crisis. If we are to rise to the challenge, we're going to have to innovate. In a radical way. This means taking risks - carefully considered, never unnecessary, ones. Having the courage to take the long view once again. Rewriting the rules of economic activity from the ground up, by standing alongside those who recognize that the greatest ambition of all lies in finding alternative means to create wealth. Our mission is to support the entrepreneurs who are repairing the world - from the very beginning of their journey, and with no time limit on our commitment. How? By bringing together a broad and diverse community of first-rate investors, and steering the flow of capital to where it is most likely to make a difference. One sector at a time, one start-up at a time, thereby increasing the number of tipping points. Allowing what will save us to thrive in the face of overwhelming adversity. So that we can finally initiate the systemwide transformational change which all of us are calling for, without always knowing where to start.
