ValleyNXT Ventures has launched Bharat Breakthrough Fund–I, a SEBI-registered Category I venture capital fund, with a total size of Rs 400 crore to back seed to pre-Series A startups. In the phase between validation and scale, startups often fail due to fragmented advice, premature scaling pressure, and a lack of execution clarity. Bharat Breakthrough Fund has been designed to address this gap through a unique VC-plus-accelerator model, powered by ValleyNXT’s proven MIB framework—Mentorship, Investment, and Business Connects. Bharat Breakthrough Fund–I is targeting a base corpus of Rs 200 crore, with a greenshoe option of an additional Rs 200 crore, creating a Rs 400 crore fund focused on investing in deep-tech and tech-first startups. The fund will support innovation across sectors including space, defence tech, robotics, AI/ML, cybersecurity, biotech, sustainability, and consumer innovation. According to ValleyNXT Ventures, it has already supported multiple early-stage startups through its strong angel network and accelerator-driven investment approach. With a proven track record of evaluating over 5,000 deals and investing in more than 10 promising ventures, the firm has consistently enabled startups with capital, mentorship, and strategic business connections to accelerate growth. The fund is led by an experienced leadership team comprising Nikhil Agarwal, Madhu Vasepalli, Anand Saklecha, and Suresh Goyal, bringing together deep expertise in venture investing, acceleration, governance, and deep-tech innovation.
