Natasha Malpani, former partner at Kae Capital, has launched Boundless Ventures, an early-stage fund with a corpus of ₹200 crore aimed at investing in India’s rapidly growing AI startup ecosystem. The fund primarily focuses on pre-seed and seed-stage companies working across consumer AI applications, infrastructure, agent tooling, healthcare, logistics, and Make-in-India AI hardware.
Fund Focus and Early Investments
Boundless Ventures targets startups pushing innovation in crucial verticals shaped by AI. The fund has already made six investments, including:
- SuperHealth – a healthcare technology startup.
- Armatrix – a robotics firm.
- Piersight – a spacetech venture.
- Knot – a quick fashion delivery startup.
- Plus two stealth-mode companies working on AI infrastructure and consumer AI.
These investments reflect the fund’s commitment to backing diverse, high-impact ventures that combine deep technical expertise with clear market potential.
A Founder-Centric Philosophy
Natasha Malpani built Boundless Ventures from her personal network of friends and family, emphasizing trust and agility. She said, “Founders who can marry technical depth with cultural fluency will be the ones who set the terms of the next wave. Boundless exists to back those founders before the world catches on.” The fund aims to be “sharp, fast, and rooted in trust,” offering founders more than just capital.
Strategic Support for Founders
Boundless Ventures is uniquely positioned to assist its portfolio companies with storytelling, market access, and network building. Natasha, who previously founded Boundless Media and helped scale Dice Media into a successful digital content powerhouse, brings a wealth of operational and creative expertise. This background enables her fund to provide hands-on guidance in brand-building, growth strategy, and expanding reach.
