Aarthi Ramamurthy has launched Schema Ventures, a VC firm with a $20 million fund focused on supporting 'exceptional outsider founders' building companies from conviction and lived experience.
The fund will target early-stage companies across various sectors including industrial software, robotics, intelligence for factories, construction, workflow automation, and developer tools.
Ramamurthy aims to back founders who build from lived experiences, providing capital and conviction even before traditional startup maturity markers are present.
Amid a trend of solo general partners, Schema Ventures stands out with its unique approach of supporting technical founders in overlooked or underserved categories.
