1Mby1M Virtual Accelerator Investor Forum: With Karthee Madasamy, Founder and Managing Partner at Mobile Foundation Ventures (Part 3)

Posted on Saturday, Jul 17th 2021

Sramana Mitra: Let’s double-click down on deep tech and seed investing in 2021. What check sizes are you writing and what does a team need to have in place for you to be willing to write that first check?

Karthee Madasamy: We invest between Seed and Series A. A lot of our stuff is with Series A. We selectively do seed, post-seed, or pre-Series A. Our check sizes range from $500,000 to $3 million. Our seed is probably $1 million to $2 million, but we’ve also done $3 million and $500,000.

Sramana Mitra: Your portfolio is almost entirely enterprise-focused companies, right? You do B2B enterprise businesses?

Karthee Madasamy: That is correct. 

Sramana Mitra: Let me underscore what you are saying. When we started getting into this COVID mode of doing business, the buyers were not used to buying technology just based on a Zoom meeting. This is true unless it is a small deal size telesales-oriented sales flow.
