Our Investment Approach

3i Partners’ acts at the confluence of pressing development challenges, impact-focused and resolute entrepreneurs with deep sector/technology knowledge and market opportunity to build businesses that create and return value to Indian society and our investors.

​

We bring an impact-first, but financially rigorous and scale-focused perspective, and look to invest in companies meeting the following criteria:

​

• Clearly targeted at or involving India’s emerging and historically neglected populations of over 600 million and meeting a pressing need
   

• Strong entrepreneurs with clear missions and execution ability
   

• Good unit economics or clear paths to good unit economics with potential for significant scale in ~5 years

​

• Pre-Series A, looking for a minimum ticket size of 125K-250K USD

​

3iP was built by entrepreneurs for entrepreneurs. We follow an active approach of ‘mentor capital’, working closely with our portfolio companies and advising them on growth, strategy, talent acquisitions, operations, technology and product development and fundraising.
