About sunilbhargava

We work with companies in the trenches helping them discover their business. We are comfortable with all aspects of a startup, technology, business models, partnerships etc and roll up our sleeves to do some heavy lifting. All hours are office hours. We invest our muscle and our money in the early days when the companies need it most.

We work with a very small set of companies at a time and we have a very high rate of getting companies to exits (over 90%).
