We are particularly interested in fintech, edtech, future of work, enterprise SaaS, health tech, and logistics, but are happy to look at any tech or tech-enabled startup. Leveraging AI or blockchain technology is a plus. We want to be your first institutional investor. Our team has done seed investments in Axie Infinity (blockchain gaming and NFT pioneer), ApplyBoard (edtech unicorn), ELSA (later backed by Google's AI-focused fund), Trusting Social (Sequoia's first investment in a Vietnamese startup), and dozens of other companies.
