Richina Inc.

About The Fund

Richina Inc. is a venture capital firm that specializes in various stages of investments, particularly focusing on the seed and startup phases. With an expertise in equity investments, the firm actively places capital into companies within a broad range of industries, including software (covering web marketplaces, SaaS platforms, etc.), fintech and financial services, hardware and manufacturing, as well as real estate and construction. The fund holds $150 million in assets under management and is known for partnering with companies from their inception. They endeavor to collaborate with technical founders even before a company is fully created and lead pre-product investment rounds, positioning themselves as a valuable ally for turning bold ideas into category-defining enterprises. Richina Inc. has been involved with successful ventures such as Snyk, Blockdaemon, Kustomer, and BigID, and thrives by tapping into their early adopter enterprise network to support startups. Their investment philosophy is built on the principle that inception investing—providing support and resources well before a company's first product is developed—can be more effective than traditional seed investing. The firm leverages its extensive experience, having been in the venture space for over a decade, to identify and nurture high-potential founders and their ideas. By offering a suite of resources through their Enterprise Founder Toolkit, and maintaining a consistent dialogue with the enterprise community through their news and resources platform, Richina Inc. aspires to not only fund but also guide companies towards substantial growth and success.
