Roughly 80-85% of deals are done at seed or Series A, before other institutional capital enters. Cross-border model: partners are physically based in both India and Silicon Valley, and the firm actively encourages portfolio companies to establish US operations early. Current focus: AI, SaaS, fintech, and commerce.
Nexus Venture Partners is an India-US cross-border venture capital firm founded in 2006 by Naren Gupta, Sandeep Singhal, and Suvir Sujan — technology entrepreneurs rather than traditional finance professionals. The firm partners with founders at inception, seed, or Series A and invests primarily in enterprise software, SaaS, and digitally-driven consumer startups, with partners physically based in both India and Silicon Valley.
Why Nexus Venture Partners?
Founded by operators, not finance professionals — a founder-first cross-border model unusual among India VCs. One of the earliest India-US bridge funds (since 2006). Actively helps portfolio companies establish US operations to access both markets simultaneously.
How to pitch
No public cold-submission form; sources deals through its partner network across both India and Silicon Valley.
