About Axilor Ventures

Axilor Ventures is a Bengaluru-based early-stage seed fund and startup accelerator founded in 2014 by Infosys co-founders Kris Gopalakrishnan and S.D. Shibulal. The firm operates both a seed investment fund (ATF1 & ATF2) and a structured accelerator program, giving it a dual identity as both a hands-on accelerator for very early founders and an active seed-stage VC for later checks into the same portfolio.

Why Axilor Ventures?

Founded and personally backed by two Infosys co-founders — deep operator credibility from one of India's most successful IT services companies. Combines an accelerator's hands-on early support with a genuine seed fund's follow-on capital, rather than handing founders off to unrelated investors after the program. Very high (75%+) follow-on investment rate signals real conviction, not spray-and-pray seed checks.
