Note from Aliasger Yakub Rampurwala
Thesis:
Vastly Valuable Ventures (VVV) invests in fabulous founders – they make or break a business. VVV looks for hustlers with perseverance.

VVV is focused on Pre-Seed to Series A stage technology companies with a primary focus on emerging markets (70-80%: Middle East & Africa; 10-20%: LatAm; 10-20%: Others (Pakistan, Bangladesh, India); Selectively consider other geographies). Selectively, VVV may consider post-Series A companies and companies in other geographies. VVV is sector agnostic with a tilt to FinTech, Marketplaces, InsurTech, DeepTech, SaaS, RegTech, Consumer, DeFi, Mobility and FOW
VVV predominantly invests alongside other reputable global investors.

On average, VVV participates in <1% of the deals originated, that make it through the stringent screening and diligence process.
