ValleyNXT Ventures has introduced its inaugural fund, Bharat Breakthrough Fund-I, with a target of Rs 400 crore ($44.1 million) and a base target of Rs 200 crore. The fund aims to invest in seed to pre-Series A startups, particularly those facing challenges beyond funding, such as execution clarity and advice fragmentation.

The focus will be on deep-tech sectors, including AI, robotics, and biotechnology, using a VC-plus-accelerator model supported by the MIB Framework. ValleyNXT has assessed over 5,000 deals and previously invested in at least 10 early-stage startups.
