Profile

TILT is the impact-first investment platform of The/Nudge Foundation, a Bengaluru-based nonprofit that has spent eight years backing social enterprises. Co-founded by Atul Satija and Richa Singh, TILT invests in science- and technology-led businesses serving India's Next Billion.

The firm writes seed to Series A cheques of INR 2 crore to INR 16 crore out of a maiden INR 250 crore (about $26 million) fund. Focus areas include agricultural value chains, climate resilience, informal work and emerging employment models, MSME productivity, employability, financial inclusion, market access and distribution, and technology and AI applied to livelihood challenges.

The fund is anchored by the US-based Livelihood Impact Fund and backed by entrepreneurs and investors including Binny Bansal, Deep Kalra, Amit Gupta, Hari Menon, Vidit Aatrey and the Raj and Indra Nooyi Family Office. Over the next 15 years TILT aims to back more than 150 startups and improve 100 million lives. The/Nudge has already supported over 190 social enterprises and deployed roughly INR 180 crore in grants.
