About

I'm Nitya Agarwal, Vice President at Info Edge Ventures, where I focus on partnering with category-defining Indian companies. My career has taken me from quantitative analytics at Gartner to investment roles at 3one4 Capital, where I helped scale the firm's AUM and led numerous investments. I'm passionate about thesis-led investing, particularly in consumer-tech, fintech, healthcare, and deep tech, and I believe in helping founders operationalize success beyond just capital. I offer venture investment, operational support, and market insights, and I'm always looking to connect with ambitious founders and ecosystem partners who are building enduring businesses. My DMs are open for genuine conversations about the future of India's startup landscape.
