Sandhya Venkatachalam Launches Axiom Partners Fund
Sandhya Venkatachalam, a former Khosla Ventures partner and early Groq investor, recently launched Axiom Partners and closed a $52 million debut fund to back earliest-stage AI startups. Axiom will write checks from $100,000 to $2.5 million, pursuing contrarian, category-defining AI bets and leveraging operating partners including ex-OpenAI engineering lead Evan Morikawa. The fund targets founders building new AI categories rather than crowded applications.
