About

Hey, I’m Olivia Deka - I work across the venture ecosystem with founders, funds, and LPs - to turn relationships into capital outcomes. My focus is early-stage, where deal flow, co-investors, and credible positioning matter most. Over the past decade, I’ve built a career that cuts across nonprofits, startups, venture platforms, and advisory. From founding a social impact organisation that scaled across India & EMEA, to operating inside startups, to building global partnerships with VCs, Founders, and ecosystem enablers - each step has shaped how I now work with capital allocators and founders. Currently, I split my time between: • Working w VC funds and the larger ecosystem on bridging gaps across - Startegy & ops, fundraising and ecosystem positioning • Supporting founders with deal readiness, capital introductions, and investor communications • Running The Capital Room, a platform convening women investors and emerging women managers • Championing ecosystem evangelism through events, thought partnerships, and cross-border community building What I bring is breadth of network and depth of trust. I don’t limit myself to one sector or geography; instead, I specialise in building capital pathways - between Global South founders and global investors, between LPs and new managers, between startups and growth enablers. I move fluidly across industries and geographies while keeping focus on one outcome - helping the right people, funds, and companies connect and grow. Always open to conversations with ambitious founders, thoughtful funds, and anyone building the future of capital.

We operate upstream of capital deployment - strengthening mandate clarity, governance discipline, cross-border structuring and exit pathway coordination, including M&A and secondary liquidity environments.
