Pratithi Investments serves as the private investment arm of Infosys co‑founder Kris Gopalakrishnan’s family office. Established in 2015 and based in Bengaluru, it invests quietly but purposefully across venture and private equity funds as well as select direct deals. The firm is sector agnostic, spanning technology, scientific research and manufacturing, and its mandate includes supporting entrepreneurship and scientific innovation in India.
While Pratithi does not invest at a high volume, recent activity shows it co‑investing alongside partners such as Axilor Ventures. Its portfolio blends late‑stage technology firms with impact‑driven ventures and research initiatives. The family office typically writes cheques starting at about $4 million and leverages Axilor for early‑stage exposure.
Pratithi manages around $500 million with a compact team of seven, including two partners. Its participation in more than 110 funding rounds reflects a deliberate, long‑term approach to capital deployment, focusing on nurturing high‑potential Indian enterprises and research.
