Investment Banking
We follow a disciplined, four-stage process — from founder alignment to flawless execution. Each step is designed to maximise outcome and protect founder equity.
Rigorous assessment of mutual conviction. We engage only where we see asymmetric return potential and genuine mission alignment.
Deep analysis of scalability vectors, defensibility mechanisms, and optimal capital structure. We build the narrative before we build the deck.
Curating the right institutional partners — family offices, venture funds, and strategic investors who bring more than capital.
Managing the entire capital raise while protecting founder focus. Term sheets, negotiations, documentation — handled with precision.
While deep tech remains our passion, we follow exceptional founders wherever they build. Our expertise lies in identifying scalable patterns and articulating them with institutional precision.
"Chirayu is the connector you want in your corner — where sharp capital meets smarter conviction. He doesn't just pass along deals — he curates them with precision. Every introduction reflects a deep filter of quality, relevance, and long-term potential. Founders trust his judgment. Investors value his clarity. And deals move forward because he knows exactly what makes them worth backing."
"Working with Chirayu has been one of the most defining partnerships in Andromeida's journey so far. Over just three months, he demonstrated exceptional execution — structuring the round, aligning the right investors, and navigating complexities with precision. His ability to balance strategic thinking with on-ground hustle was pivotal to closing our seed round. What truly sets him apart is his commitment beyond transactions."
"Chirayu is a bankable banker. You can trust him to be your first stage-gate in evaluating if your business is investable — then rest assured he will pull every shot needed to find the right investor and hold your hand throughout the process. His company-first approach is rare and his acumen to drive a deal to closure is very strong."
"Chirayu has a sharp eye for identifying high-quality deeptech opportunities and consistently brought us well-curated, differentiated deals aligned with our thesis. What sets him apart is not just deal flow, but the depth of understanding he brings to complex technologies and founder contexts. Any fund looking to work with someone who genuinely understands deeptech would benefit from partnering with Chirayu."
