Over 20 years of investing in Indian startups demonstrates Seedfund's expertise in this area.

Seedfund ensures that their investments scale appropriately, aiming for their portfolio companies to become sector leaders by combining their knowledge of investment with their hands-on entrepreneurial experience to foster growth and create value. With an investment range between $100,000 and $55,000,000, Seedfund is not only an investor but also a strategic partner, using their Start Smart approach to get the most out of each idea. They believe in backing companies with a strong conviction, consistent core values, and diligent execution. The fund also values practical innovations and supports startups that not only meet existing market demands but identify unknown needs and approach challenges with fresh perspectives. Although their website mentioned that they are not investing in new companies at the time of the snapshot, their contribution to the Indian startup ecosystem and their impact on the growth of their portfolio companies, such as RedBus, reflects their committed approach to investment and entrepreneurship.
