• Humbled to see my name in this top angels of 2014 elite list among other good investor friends. http://goo.gl/2gb11P
• Being a serial entrepreneur you always would like to be associated with startups that come up with bright and innovative business ideas.Based on my past experience there is not enough capital available for start ups. The ecosystem is not mature enough hence would like to contribute and help build it. Currently I feel there is lack of mentoring happening to startups. Hence would like to help start ups mentor and with the network and market access help them to scale their business faster. Besides the capital the start ups need sincere marketing assessment advice which can help them define the addressable market with clarity but such clarity cannot be purchased or assumed – it requires asking the right questions by group of investors.
