About

Early-stage investor focused on consumer tech. I'm a Partner at Speedinvest, an instructor at Reforge and write about network effects at Breadcrumb.vc. Also experimenting with my own robotics projects. Please direct all pitches to sameer@breadcrumb.vc or sameer.singh@speedinvest.com. Or sign up for my office hours here: https://zcal.co/sameersingh/officehours Previously, spent 5 years at App Annie — a startup backed by Sequoia, Greycroft and IVP — during its hypergrowth phase. I led a global, cross-functional team, working across product, marketing, and sales, advising customers like Spotify, Shpock and Trainline. Before that, I was an early-stage investor in India focused on commerce businesses. My independent work at this time has been referenced in Philip Tetlock's book, Superforecasting.

Lead Investor

Jan 2013Sep 2014 · 1 yr 8 mos · Hyderabad Area, India

  • Led deal sourcing, evaluation and due diligence of seed-stage investments. My primarily focus was on mobile commerce and marketplace businesses. My thesis focused on e-commerce enablers rather than hyper-competitive, consumer-focused e-commerce. This led to the following investments:
  • 1) MartMobi, a "plug & play"​ mobile commerce solution. Martmobi has since graduated from Techstars'​ incubation program and was subsequently acquired by Snapdeal, one of India's largest e-commerce companies valued at over $2 billion.
  • 2) Shotang (formerly Channelyst), an online marketplace connecting retailers and distributors. Shotang was later selected for Microsoft's accelerator program and raised a $5 million Series A funding round.
