Big Sky Capital

Big Sky Capital is an early-stage venture capital firm dedicated to investing in disruptive B2B enterprise technology solutions. The firm strategically focuses on sectors such as Software as a Service (SaaS), Artificial Intelligence (AI), fintech, healthcare, and cybersecurity. A core tenet of their investment strategy is the support of underrepresented founders in emerging markets, including Southeast Asia, Central Asia, and the United States. Operating with a "Founder-First" mentality, Big Sky Capital provides not only financial backing but also hands-on assistance and strategic guidance to its portfolio companies.

Co-founded in 2022 by Jahn Karsybaev and Adil Nurgozhin, Big Sky Capital was established to address the challenges faced by early-stage companies in often-overlooked markets. Jahn Karsybaev, a Kazakh émigré with a strong background in corporate IT, and Adil Nurgozhin, bringing extensive venture capital experience, envisioned a firm that could bridge the gap between these dynamic regions and the robust U.S. enterprise market. Their shared entrepreneurial journey and a deep commitment to fostering innovation drive the firm's mission to empower the next generation of business builders.

The firm has cultivated a diverse portfolio of innovative early-stage B2B technology companies. Notable investments include Atarino, a platform delivering cutting-edge tech solutions; KeyCaliber, specializing in advanced technology for business operations; Credilinq.AI, which focuses on AI-driven financial solutions; and Pippin Title, a company transforming title insurance through digital technology. Other significant portfolio companies span various industries, such as Boom Grow Farms in agricultural technology, along with Clockster, Kwaaka, Cerebra, Hero's Journey, Tass Vision, Saola, Maca, and Investbanq, all contributing to a portfolio of over 20 companies.
