About
IN4X
We’ve lived both sides of early-stage funding: the founder’s struggle with endless pitching and dilution, and the investor’s challenge of high risk and misaligned incentives. The gap was clear — founders need ownership protection and support, while investors need security with upside.
IN4X was created to close that gap. Our principal-protected, milestone-driven model ensures investor capital is safeguarded, with funding released only when startups achieve clearly defined milestones. Founders retain control and more ownership until Series A, while investors gain structured, risk-adjusted upside through either a fixed multiple payoff or equity conversion.
We operate strictly under private placement exemptions of the Companies Act. IN4X is not a bank, collective investment scheme, or financial services provider, and all capital safeguarding is performed via duly licensed FSPs. This means your investment journey is fully compliant, transparent, and professionally administered.
For investors, this means predictable downside protection, transparent reporting, and clear exit pathways. Regular milestone verification, quarterly reporting, and independent governance oversight ensure your capital is deployed with discipline.
For founders, this means no dilution until Series A, governance protections enshrined in our MOI, and founder-first support that strengthens the backbone of your business. With access to operational guidance, global networks, and milestone-based growth capital, you can focus on building products, winning customers, and scaling with confidence.
We back ventures in preventive health, foodtech, greentech, the future of work, edtech, and vertical SaaS — industries designed for global impact and long-term scalability. At IN4X, we align incentives so that both sides win together.

How IN4X stands apart
IN4X vs traditional VCs
VCs put your full commitment at risk once called. IN4X safeguards principal through licensed FSP structures, deploying only yield into startups. The result: venture-style upside with reduced downside exposure.
IN4X vs Accelerators
Accelerators typically provide lump-sum equity checks. IN4X combines milestone gates with structured upside — fixed multiple payoffs or Series A conversion — all backed by a principal-first treasury model.
IN4X vs RBF
Revenue-Based Financing caps paybacks but doesn’t safeguard principal. IN4X offers both: equity-like upside when conversion is attractive, plus a cash multiple floor — with capital safeguarded until milestones are met.
IN4X vs Venture Debt
Venture debt adds early repayment pressure on founders. IN4X avoids burdening startups with debt while still giving investors structured downside protection and optional equity conversion.
Financial precedent
Our design mirrors principal-protected notes familiar in public markets: principal safeguarded, measured risk deployed. It’s a structure sophisticated LPs will recognise — adapted to early-stage venture.
IN4X shared ownership
Our funding partners don’t just back startups — they also participate in the long-term value of the IN4X incubator platform itself, creating a dual path to returns.
