Thesis
The firm's investment thesis centers on early-stage startups (pre-seed and seed) building "bold, ambitious products in massive markets" (>$10 billion). Key sectors include Enterprise Applications, HealthTech, Fintech, AI, Biotech, SaaS, and Health IT, with a preference for companies that "need to exist for humanity." The geographic focus is primarily the United States. The investment strategy is "conviction-driven and founder-first," with a tendency to make non-lead checks. The debut fund, IA Fund, closed at $26 million in May 2025, formalizing Akhund's extensive angel investing activity which began in 2016. The typical check size is around $150,000, with the potential for larger "conviction checks" up to $1 million for founders known to Akhund. The firm is headquartered in San Francisco, California.
