New Investment: QualSights We're excited to announce our latest investment in?QualSights, a category-defining insights platform that is revolutionizing how brands understand consumer behavior.

Why does this matter? 1. Helps brands uncover hidden consumer behaviors with unmatched precision 2.

New Investment Highlight: Swirepay ?? We're excited to announce our investment in Swirepay. Swirepay is revolutionizing payment processing for businesses of all sizes, simplifying payments, invoicing, and reconciliation. With integrations for debit/credit cards, ACH, UPI (India), and more, they’re transforming how SMEs and enterprises manage their cash flow. What makes Swirepay stand out is its?all-in-one platform?that streamlines reconciliation and payments across various channels, from point-of-sale systems to complex B2B transactions. Swirepay takes a?Zelle-inspired approach?by partnering directly with major banks which?enables rapid scalability while keeping B2B customer acquisition costs low.?The firm has already gained the trust of major players like?ICICI Bank?and?BNY Mellon?and has made a massive impact, such as helping the Tamil Nadu Electricity Board digitize payments for millions of customers. With Swirepay’s scalable platform, organizations now have one centralized, intuitive dashboard for all their financial transactions. Swirepay’s?Reconciliation as a Service (RaaS)?platform, powered by AI, brings real-time visibility into all transactions, so businesses can see exactly where their cash flow stands. From reducing weeks of reconciliation work down to hours, Swirepay is empowering companies to make faster, data-driven decisions. It’s a privilege to be part of Swirepay’s journey as they redefine financial technology for businesses everywhere. Adithya M.
