Built by engineers. Run by conviction.
Yammi Ventures Group was founded by people who had already built things — not to manage money at arm's length, but to take positions in companies worth owning for the long term.

We started in 2022 and have come a long way.
Yammi Ventures Group is established in Almaty, Kazakhstan, by aerospace and energy systems engineer Nurtay Jaxaliyev. The firm's first investment positions are taken in software engineering outsourcing and small B2B SaaS projects — early bets that build the foundation for a broader investment mandate.

The firm generates its first recurring revenue and immediately reinvests into its own portfolio of early-stage ventures. Of 63 pilot projects launched across software and B2B services, 61 are shut down. Two survive — and both show positive net cash flow. It is an uncompromising filter, and it works. Tagpoint.tech begins its growth trajectory as a facilities management platform. The firm establishes its first U.S. office, beginning the geographical expansion that will define the next chapter.
The firm pivots its methodology: rather than continuing to launch projects speculatively, Yammi Ventures Group turns its attention to deep research and systematic analysis of alternative markets. More projects are tested, more are cut. Enterprise data partnerships are launched, embedding the firm in large-scale data infrastructure engagements. Tagpoint.tech continues scaling its client base across Kazakhstan. Cognivault is established, laying the groundwork for the firm's entry into hyperscale AI infrastructure.
The firm enters its most active expansion phase. KazAtlantic Strategic Group is established in Washington, D.C., anchoring the firm's energy thesis around advanced nuclear and SMR advisory. The energy project portfolio expands significantly. Cognivault launches AI data center infrastructure in California and secures procurement of a new 100MW project in Texas — one of the firm's most significant infrastructure commitments to date. Sentinel and Bloomington establishes a UK investment office, extending the group's operational reach into Europe.
Deonix.kz joins the portfolio as master distributor for Citrix and Informatica across Central Asia, adding enterprise software distribution to the group's capabilities. A new Astana office is opened to support the firm's growing presence in Kazakhstan's emerging tech and financial hub. The energy portfolio continues to grow, with KazAtlantic's uranium conversion plant in Kazakhstan advancing through active development. Yammi begins donating to the National Oncology Center in Kazakhstan — a commitment that extends the firm's mission beyond commercial returns and into the long-term wellbeing of the communities it operates in.
