Raghav's journey has been an incredible amalgamation of technology, strategy, and exploration. His extensive background weaves together experience across technology, risk assessment, analysis, and strategic thinking, culminating in a rich tapestry of expertise.

Prior to SapphireInk, Raghav was a part of the startup and investments sectors, directing Investments and strategic initiatives at a prominent Foodtech startup. His time in investment banking equipped him with the prowess to dissect ventures down to their foundational principles, empowering us to back exceptional founders and champion them beyond their limits.

Raghav's fascination with technology, particularly in the realms of deep-tech and computation, ignited his curiosity for the cutting edge. He firmly believes that true innovation flourishes by embracing the unconventional, by embracing outliers, and contrarian choices. This belief forms the bedrock of our philosophy at Sapphireink—a philosophy rooted in the boundless potential that emerges from the fusion of disparate technologies and disciplines.

outliers and contrarian choices are at the origin of some of the most beautiful ventures and that unique combinations of technologies and disciplines can foster innovation and creativity.
