Atrium Angels

Atrium Angels represents a specialized micro venture capital initiative created by and for graduates of the prestigious Indian School of Business (ISB). Established as the primary resource for early-stage funding and entrepreneurial guidance, this alumni-driven fund specifically targets promising ventures founded by members of the ISB community. The fund operates with a unique understanding of the entrepreneurial journey faced by ISB graduates, offering not just financial backing but also strategic mentorship informed by shared educational experiences and professional networks.

Launched in 2021, the fund successfully pooled capital from a diverse group of accomplished ISB alumni who serve as limited partners (LPs). This structure creates a powerful ecosystem where successful graduates reinvest in the next generation of ISB entrepreneurs. Focusing primarily on pre-seed and seed stage investments, Atrium Angels implements a strategic requirement that portfolio companies must include at least one co-founder with an ISB background, ensuring alignment with their mission of fostering innovation within their alumni network.

The fund has steadily built a portfolio of promising startups across various sectors, leveraging the extensive ISB network that spans multiple industries and geographies. This network provides portfolio companies with access to potential customers, strategic partners, and follow-on investors beyond the initial capital investment. Atrium Angels' investment approach combines rigorous evaluation of business fundamentals with an appreciation for the unique perspectives and capabilities that ISB's education instills in its graduates.

Looking forward, Atrium Angels continues to expand its investment capacity by tapping into the growing ISB alumni network, which includes influential leaders across global corporations, successful entrepreneurs, and investment professionals. This ongoing fundraising effort allows the fund to increase both the number and size of investments while maintaining its core focus on ISB-founded ventures. By creating this specialized funding pathway, Atrium Angels addresses a critical gap in the entrepreneurial journey for ISB graduates, providing them with capital that understands their unique potential and is aligned with their long-term success.
