Powering Innovation. Unlocking Value.
Capital for the Builders of Tomorrow.
We are an early growth venture equity fund investing in exceptional value-creating entrepreneurs driving innovations that earn first-in-class returns while driving sustainability.
Our Investment Thesis
We are built on a simple conviction: Deeptech & tech led innovation can solve the problems that matter and be great levellers for inclusive growth at scale.
We are investing in a $5 Trillion opportunity presented by ClimateTech, Healthtech, and the enablers sectors of Fintech and Future of Work (Skilling) with a primary focus on India and selective investments in overseas markets. We invest in early-growth investments predominantly in post-revenue deep-tech companies, generally at Pre-Series A to Series A stage, with at least a path to profitability. Pre-revenue companies may be considered selectively on a case-by-case basis.
We believe that Profit and Purpose are not mutually exclusive.
An investment in gender equitable and under appreciated assets can transform communities at the grassroots levels which is scalable and can deliver significant returns for investors.
““We are passionate backers of Accelerating World-class Enterprises by unlocking under appreciated levers. India is no longer just a digital-services economy. It is producing world-class research, talent, and intellectual property across energy, materials, biotech, robotics, and AI. AWE Funds exists to fund the commercialization of that science - with patient capital, hands-on support, and a gender-smart lens that expands the talent pool rather than shrinks it.””
Our Inspiration
In addition to our deeply prolific investment experience, we have championed transformational and generational wealth through systems changes and programs such as AIRSWEEE.
