WHO ARE WE? We are a newly-created entity under the umbrella of India Quotient (IQ). We focus on very early stage start-ups. We don't mind if it looks basic, as long as it promises to grow by leaps and bounds. Here’s what we promise in turn- - If your product is not ready, you are welcome to sit with us until you get it ready. - If your product is ready but not really working, we will give you the funds to make it work. - If your product market fit is not proven, we will give you enough money to get there. - If your business is doing well, but is still not VC ready, all you need is some money and patience- we’ll do the former, you do the latter. In short, we are happy to hold-your-hand until you make it. We are happy to invest, reap rewards and put the reins of your business back in your hands. Our investments will largely be in terms of money. We are serious about promises- we have a Board, an Investment Committee, Mentors and Investment Managers backing every investment. The founders of our portfolio companies are a part of the IQ team giving you access to a wire-range of mentors and industry connects. WHAT SECTORS DO WE LIKE? We have a special interest for markets that others think are small. That's what the market for books online or restaurant reviews was a few years ago. The intersection of smartphone, big data, and design is changing our lives. We see people all around us buying, talking, getting updated, learning, entertaining themselves, playing on their smartphones- we won’t be exaggerating if we said we are VERY interested in this sector. Basic needs like food, water, housing, healthcare, education, financial products and a little bit of discretionary spend are sectors we’ll lend an ear to! HOW TO REACH US ? If you haven't found us through LinkedIn, Twitter, seminars or mutual friends, it's our fault- we ought to be out in the field more. While we fix that, just send us your plan in a simple smart-phone friendly e-mail with no attachments.
