Pre-seed and seed-stage startups focused on business-to-business have a new source of capital. Garuda Ventures, an emerging venture capital manager, closed on its debut fund with $31 million in commitments to invest in B2B-focused software companies.

Rishi Taparia and Arpan Punyani, the firm’s two general partners, know a thing or two about scaling companies from their previous positions. Taparia was an early employee at both Poynt, a payments processor that was acquired by GoDaddy in 2020, and workforce management platform Legion. He was also previously an investor at Matrix Partners and spearheaded the firm’s seed investment in Canva.
