Sigma Capital Launches $100 Million Fund to Drive Web3 Innovation

Sigma Capital, a private equity firm specializing in early-stage startups, has announced the launch of a $100 million fund to drive innovation in web3 sectors. The fund, dubbed “Sigma Capital Fund I”, will focus on investing in projects within decentralized finance, blockchain infrastructure, real-world asset tokenization, gaming, and the metaverse.

According to the firm, the fund will not only invest in early-stage startups but also actively manage a portfolio of liquid tokens to generate consistent returns. Sigma Capital plans to invest in 100 early-stage startups, 25 liquid tokens, and 10 fund-of-funds over the next three years. High-yield strategies in decentralized finance will be employed to optimize the fund’s portfolio performance.

Investment Strategy and Leadership

Vineet Budki, the firm’s chief executive and managing partner, will lead the fund. Budki envisions a digital economy that is “more open, inclusive, and innovative.” The UAE’s economy and regulatory environment are seen as the perfect backdrop for web3’s next wave of innovation.

The firm will work with web3 hubs in 10 cities worldwide to offer market insights and support to its portfolio companies. The selection process for startups has not been detailed, but the firm’s approach will likely involve a thorough evaluation of each project’s potential for growth and innovation.
