growX ventures is a venture capital firm that invests in B2B and deep-tech startups. It runs two funds registered as Category II alternative investment funds, Fund I and the current Fund II,. It is an investor, not an incubator: there is no cohort, no desk space and no fixed application window.

What growX invests in

growX says it does not mind the sector as long as the idea is B2B. It backs founders at the earliest stage, including pre-revenue, pre-product and pre-launch companies, and it also invests at early-growth, alongside co-investors in mid-stage rounds of fast-growing companies. It describes a strong interest in deep tech. Cheque size is not published; its about page says the amount varies with the company's need and evolution.

Its portfolio pages group companies by Fund II, deep tech, fintech and SaaS. Named companies include Pixxel, Locus, Fynd, Bellatrix, CynLr, Lightspeed, 4BaseCare, Wiom, Claro Energy, OneStack and Progcap, covering satellites, logistics software, robotics, genomics and lending. The Fund I page lists tech areas such as artificial intelligence, defence tech, drones, electric vehicles, robotics, semiconductors and space tech.

How to approach growX

The site has a Pitch to us button that opens an online pitch form, and a contact page that lists a funding inbox for founders. There is no published eligibility checklist, deadline or stage rule beyond the B2B focus, so read this as a normal venture fund: send a short, clear pitch and expect the team to reply only if they see a fit. growX says it has to understand the idea before it invests, so explain the problem and the technology in plain words.

Track record

growX started as a management capital firm and became an angel club, and its first regulated fund launched in 2018. Fund I is now fully deployed, with 17 investments across fintech, space tech, healthcare and robotics. On its investors page the firm reports 46 investments and 8 exits in total. These figures are its own and are not audited.

The two funds are registered with the market regulator as Category II alternative investment funds, each with its own fund manager, as shown in the website footer.
