Profile

Vicus Ventures is a seed-stage venture firm founded in 2024 by brothers Raj and Sunny Singh Sandhu. Based in New York and San Francisco, the firm operates on a 'village' model of investing, leveraging a unique LP network to offer founder support. The Sandhu brothers, with backgrounds at Alphabet's Verily and Bain, emphasize network-driven value over traditional investing metrics. The firm focuses on creating a community that extends beyond capital, with their family roots and village ethos driving their investment approach. Vicus Ventures invests primarily in seed and pre-seed stages, engaging often before formal rounds are established. The firm is US-focused and adopts a generalist early-stage approach, with notable interest in applied AI, defense, and vertical software. The debut fund, Vicus Ventures Fund I, closed at $55 million, emphasizing a limited-cap approach to optimize for concentration and returns. The firm has built a portfolio of more than 20 companies, with standout investments in Specter, a stealth defense company founded by an Anduril alum, and Avoca, which develops AI agents for HVAC and plumbing services. Other investments include Pallet and Yuzu Health. Vicus Ventures' model is built on leveraging their extensive LP network to provide portfolio companies with access to growth investors, strategic partners, and broader market opportunities.
