Frequently asked questions
What stage of company do you invest in?
Mostly pre-seed to growth. Cheque sizes and structure depend on the company, and we regularly reserve capital for follow-on rounds.
Do you only invest in Nepal?
Our base and focus are Nepal. We will consider founders elsewhere when the company is building for Nepali customers or has a strong Nepal-based team.
Do you take board seats?
Where it adds value, yes. We prefer light, supportive governance: regular check-ins, a seat at the table for major decisions and no interference in day-to-day product work.
Which sectors are out of scope?
We stay away from businesses with no technology edge, and from sectors that conflict with our values or Nepali regulation.
