After managing two successful funds, we now present YourNest Innovative Products VC Fund III.

YourNest is among India’s leading early-stage venture capital firms focused on technology startups. Its unique investment thesis is founded on the concept of Nurture Capital which guides and mentors founders towards success.

Our three funds – launched every five years since 2012 – have a cumulative AUM of US$ 53 mn valued at ~US$ 1.2 bn (May 2025).

YourNest Innovative Products VC Fund III, our most recent offering, has invested US$ 33 mn in Indian DeepTech across AI, SpaceTech, Quantum Computing, Energy Management, IoT, Robotics, Dev. Tools, Edge Cloud, etc.

All three funds have witnessed significant exits including Uniphore, a Conversational AI investment from Fund I currently valued at over US$ 2.5 bn.

Over the years, our team has grown not just in numbers, but also in competencies. To consistently nurture founders and their startups, our four General Partners and another four Venture Partners offer complementary skillsets that reinforce YourNest’s Nurture Capital philosophy.

A committed team of young employees supports every portfolio company, and ensures that investors receive timely, transparent information.

In addition, a network of experienced advisors & mentors are available to all founders as and when required.

At YourNest, we seek out early-stage Indian technology startups which have an idea that has been translated into a product or service, and has customer validation. Our founders are committed young entrepreneurs who we call ‘Challengineers’ – people who actively question the status quo to create disruptive products and continually push boundaries that engineer new outcomes. Between our three funds, we count six investments that promise to be Dragons i.e. ‘fund makers’ who can return the entire corpus in a single exit.
