Amrish Krishnan

Fundraising expert and investor-relations leader: I design and run data-driven fundraising systems that connect growth-ready founders with active capital—VCs, angels, family offices and super-angels—through a vetted deal pipeline and live mandates. I lead investor mandate curation, LP relationships, and investor diligence protocols to increase conversion and capital deployment velocity. yourstory+2

Product marketing, incubation and early-stage operations: My early experience at Zoho (incubation and digital marketing roles) combined with incubation leadership at Intonovus gives me hands-on expertise in go-to-market, growth marketing, and building incubation engines that scale student-led ventures into investable startups. passionvista+1
