Partner
A*Check size: A* does not publish a standard check-size range; its third early-stage fund is $450M.
Vikram Ramakrishnan invests or supports investments through A*'s published strategy: Be the first believer in exceptional builders, investing before consensus, traction or product and concentrating support as the strongest companies take shape.
Exceptional builders with speed, judgment and the potential to create an important company before external validation makes the opportunity obvious.
The firm is sector-generalist but specializes in seed; later-stage opportunities and teams without exceptional builder quality are less aligned.
Show why this team is exceptional, the insight before consensus, what has been built or learned, the first customer path and where hands-on early support matters.
