Co-Founder & Managing Partner
VC | Strategy Maverick | Bridging Global Innovations
From the vibrant corridors of the USA's innovation hubs to India's entrepreneurial heartlands, my venture capital journey has been one of bridging worlds and blending insights. My forte lies in understanding the consumer's pulse, ensuring that marketing, branding, and operations come together in harmony.
At SapphireInk Ventures, this translates to transforming mere ideas into world-class innovations. Beyond just investing, I champion the right founders—the visionaries with the zeal and tenacity to craft legacies. If you're an innovator eager to make a global impact while cherishing local roots, I'm here to co-create and celebrate your success.
“Global insights, local heart — within the market’s pulse, I strive to uncover the legacies of tomorrow.”
