I am extremely delighted to be a part of Fortune India’s top 100 angel investors of 2021. I have invested in 20+ start ups during this period.
I have been actively pursuing angel investing since 2019 and have made 50+ angel investments, participated in 20+ follow-ons and interacted with over 400 founders.
I have undertaken this journey of angel investing with the goal to promote entrepreneurship and learn from founders. My approach towards investing is a balance of “gut and softer aspects” and “logic, analysis and numbers” which I call as “Dil-Se” Investing. The interactions with the various stakeholders forming a part of the start-up ecosystem have been a key source of intellectual stimulation for me and I have thoroughly enjoyed the time that I’ve spent being a part of the ecosystem.
I sincerely hope that I can continue to create an impact and contribute in my own small way to the start-up ecosystem in line with my higher purpose to stay happy and spread happiness while living my values.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude towards my rockstar founder friends (Dosts) for making me a part of their journeys and my partner, Ishani Chanana.
