We have focused on investments in seed/ rapid growth opportunities within the State of Karnataka and assisted in wide spectrum of companies catering to the Information Technology, Bio-Technology and other high-end products/ solutions in the knowledge based sector.

In many of our successful investments in the past, KITVEN Fund was the founding/ first investor and invested when the company was no more than a passionate team. We have maintained a rigorous investment process and a commitment to work closely with our portfolio companies. We understand that promising companies need more than capital/ financial backing to succeed. On the road from seed to success we became the founding team's trusted advisor and professional investor.
