Description

RPS Ventures collaborates with Blue Pool Capital, SoftBank Group, and Jerry Yang to invest in rounds with 7-8 participants, often alongside other notable investors such as Y Combinator, SAIF Partners, and Venture Highway. They have a particular interest in industries such as insurance and social media. The fund does not have a specific preference for the number of founders in portfolio startups, but startups with 4 or 5+ founders have a lower probability of receiving investment. Additionally, the fund tends to invest in startups that are 4-5 years old. Notable portfolio companies include Pavilion Data Systems, Tala, and Meesho. RPS Ventures typically engages in 2-6 deals per year, with average startup values ranging from 100-500 million dollars when investing. Their key focus was in 2019, and they aim to support companies in their growth journey by providing access to a network of successful entrepreneurs and partners.
