Fund integrated with a venture studio — taking ideas from concept to company, at the bleeding edge of deep science.
What Sets PVL Apart
We're not a conventional fund. We're a venture creation engine.
We enter when most VCs won't — at the earliest idea stage, before you've built anything.
Not just capital. We're embedded co-builders: team, tech, design, legal, and go-to-market.
We back science-first companies where technology is the differentiator — not just an enabler.
Born in PES University. We uniquely bridge academic research with commercial venture creation.
No drag-along, no tag-along, no LP provisions. We protect founders — not institutional interests.
Mentors from Fortune 500s, tier-1 VCs, and deep-tech startups across 3 continents.
What We Do
From idea to company in our 10-week deep-tech bootcamp. We provide team, tools, mentors, APIs, cloud credits, and domain expertise — so you focus purely on the product.
21+ companies built with students, researchers, and entrepreneurs. From smart wearables for pets to decentralized DeFi protocols — each with global market potential.
