Profile
We are an early-stage fund, focused on startups that not only need seed capital but also require mentoring to catapult them to the phase where they are ready for a large venture investment. We are almost always the first institutional investor in a startup.
We believe in getting deeply involved with the companies we invest in. We give our time, money and energy to the best in the business and invest in 3-5 companies in a year. We understand that entrepreneurship is a long and lonely journey and having multiple people spending sleepless nights on your business dramatically increases the chance of its success.
All the partners at Prime Venture Partners are serial entrepreneurs with strong relationships in the Silicon Valley ecosystem. Their combined experience makes Prime Venture Partners a natural destination for the startups targeting global markets such as the US, Europe, Asia and Africa.
Some of the exciting companies we've backed over the years include Ezetap, Happay, KredX, Moneytap, Niyo, HackerEarth, Synup, MyGate, WheelsEye and MFine.
Our recent investments include: Perpule, SurveySparrow, Recko and OTOCapital.
The Managing Partners, Shripati Acharya, Sanjay Swamy, and Amit Somani all have distinguished careers and bring deep experience in entrepreneurship and early stage investing.
