Namratha Kothapalli

Pre-seed at Speedinvest | Engineer turned VC 🌍

I started as a computer scientist, spent a decade building products from scratch, in scrappy startups and global tech giants, and now invest in deep tech, climate tech and industrial tech at the earliest stages. Originally from India, I've lived and worked across the US, UK, France and Austria, and enjoy working in fast-paced, open, collaborative, learning environments. Great founders come from anywhere. If you're building something ambitious, feel free to send your deck to namratha [at] speedinvest [dot] com and I’ll be in touch if there’s a fit!
