If you're spraying and praying in deeptech and come across an excellent team that is early enough with an idea that seems like it is sci-fi, just commit. Such founders typically don't let daylight burn, they pivot with the speed of thought

💡The Quantum Leap: India’s Trillion-Dollar Opportunity A seismic shift in computing is underway—quantum mechanics is unlocking computational power beyond classical limits. As startups innovate in secure networks, material discovery, and complex optimization, India is emerging

In early DeepTech, there’s often no revenue, no user growth, and no traction slide. That doesn’t mean the idea isn’t worth backing. It implies the founder’s thinking has to do the heavy lifting. At this stage, the story you tell — about the problem, the solution, and your plan —

Most people wait until something looks obvious. In DeepTech, that usually means it's already too late. By the time a trend becomes visible, the best founders are already deep into the work. We’ve learned that if you wait for clear signals in DeepTech, you often miss the real

In 2015, Desktop Metal was a small research lab inside MIT. Today, it’s a NASDAQ-listed company with 1,000+ enterprise customers, and 3D-printed parts in GM, Ford, and the U.S. Army supply chain. Their insight: most 3D printing was good for prototypes, not production. So they

I’ve never liked calling DeepTech startups “moonshots.” It might sound inspiring, but it quietly reduces years of effort to a lucky gamble. The founders I meet aren’t tossing coins — they’re putting in deliberate, focused work on problems that matter. And that deserves more

Everyone’s “passionate about VC” these days. 2nd year undergrad students reach out seeking a role, saying they're 'passionate' about VC. But curiosity ≠ conviction. Interest ≠ obsession Before you chase a title, chase discomfort. Spend time in the trenches and build, lose,

Northvolt started with a simple question in 2016: “Why are all batteries made in Asia?” Today: $55bn+ in customer orders from VW, BMW, Scania. 5+ gigafactories across Europe. They didn’t build a better cell. They built a European supply chain with sustainability baked in,

The best DeepTech founders I’ve worked with aren’t just logical, they carry a quiet intensity, a belief that feels slightly ahead of its time. I often say it’s 80% clear thinking, 10% daily grind, and 10% productive delusion. That last part isn’t a flaw; it’s what pushes them to

ICON started by printing a small home in Austin. Then, NASA funded them to print habitats for the moon. Then they raised $451m from Norwest, a16z, and Lennar. Their bet: construction doesn’t need better software, it needs better robotics and materials. They didn’t build for
