Leo Capital

How to reach the fund

• Use the Pitch to us form on the fund's website. It asks who you are, your company, and your pitch, including a link to your deck.
• The fund says no warm introduction is required and that it aims to respond within 2–3 days.

Before you pitch

• Check fit with its stated focus: pre-seed and seed first cheques, in AI, fintech and insurtech, SaaS, healthtech, logistics, consumer and commerce, with selective deeptech and Web3.
• Say why your company can be global. The fund describes itself as backing founders building for the world.
• Say what help you want beyond capital. It lists go-to-market introductions, follow-on fundraising support and senior hiring.

What to check

• The fund is headquartered in Singapore and Helsinki; ask early which team member would lead an Indian company and where the fund vehicle is based.
• No role email is published, so the form is the only stated route. The site does not publish a fund size or a selection process.

Leo Capital describes itself as a cross-continental early-stage venture fund, established in 2018 and headquartered in Singapore and Helsinki, with an India hub in Bengaluru and an India network in Delhi. Its leadership page lists a Delhi-based founder and managing partner and several partners and finance staff in Bengaluru, so Indian founders are dealing with a team that is on the ground here, though the fund is not an India-only one. It says it invests across Asia, the USA and Europe and is actively present in India, Singapore, the Nordics, the UK and MENA.

On stage, the fund says its sweet spot is the first institutional cheque, at pre-seed and seed, where it leads or co-leads. It says it continues to back companies with follow-on capital as they scale to Series A and beyond. The sectors it lists are applied and generative AI, fintech and insurtech, vertical and infrastructure SaaS including cybersecurity and DevOps, healthtech, logistics, consumer and commerce, and selective deeptech and Web3. Its portfolio page shows Indian companies in cybersecurity SaaS, diabetes care and casual gaming, among others. It wants global-first, technology-led companies, and says where you are based matters far less than what you are building.

Beyond the cheque, it describes a Catalyst Engine with three pillars: global go-to-market introductions and operator playbooks, help structuring follow-on rounds and syndicating co-investors, and senior hiring through its job board.

The stated way in is a pitch form on its site, where you say who you are, what you are building, your progress and a link to your deck. The form lets you identify as a founder, banker or agent, incubator, or another investor. The fund says no warm introduction is needed, that the investment team reads every pitch, and that it aims to respond within 2–3 days. No role email address is published. The site says it was built with the help of a portfolio company, so check the fund's own channels for anything time-sensitive.
