Activity in this selectionDeveloper tools

Nexus Venture Partners invests in software, AI and frontier technology companies from pre-seed through Series B, with stated investment sizes of $1 million to $25 million.

The team operates across Silicon Valley, San Francisco, Bengaluru and Mumbai. That presence gives it a base in both the US and India for founders building technical products across the two ecosystems.

Nexus backs companies before their product categories are well established. Its scope includes developer and infrastructure platforms as well as AI applications, with an approach centred on early technical and product conviction.
