Eximius Ventures, a pre-seed venture capital firm, has launched its second fund with a target of $30 million. Fund II aims to invest in 25-30 startups across sectors like fintech, AI, SaaS, frontier tech, and consumer tech, starting with $500,000 per startup and reserving half of the fund for follow-on investments. The firm has already invested in four companies. Led by Pearl Agarwal and Preeti Sampat, Eximius focuses on supporting innovative founders while avoiding a scattergun investment approach. The fund will source capital from a diverse range of limited partners, including high-net-worth individuals and corporate venture firms.
