Ex-founder turned VC professional — sourced 300+ startups, deployed ₹3.5 Cr ($420K), and raised ₹7 Cr ($840K). I back bold ideas with founder-first insight and offer a distinct perspective from India, acting as a bridge for global ventures seeking to expand into the Indian market
I’m an ex-EV founder turned startup scout and fund manager, blending deep-tech insight with on-ground ecosystem execution.
For the past two years, I’ve served as Incubation Manager at Vishnu Foundation TBI, where I’ve sourced 100+ startups, deployed ~$500k (₹3.5 Cr) across 15 deals, and helped raise ~$900k (₹7 Cr) in government funding under national startup schemes.
Alongside fund operations, I’ve successfully onboarded 9+ investors and forged 6+ strategic partnerships with incubators, accelerators, and ecosystem enablers — expanding our funding network and support infrastructure for startups. I also lead investment operations end-to-end: coordinating with ICs and legal teams for term sheets, managing founder communication, and tracking portfolio milestones. Additionally, I design and execute investor-facing demo days and conclaves to connect capital with innovation.
