About
Manu Kumar calls himself Chief Firestarter at K9 Ventures and coined the phrase if you think it's too early, it's already too late, positioning himself as someone who invests in companies when they're just an idea before they have a product or full team. He has a PhD in Computer Science and founded multiple companies that solve his own workflow problems, then backs similar infrastructure for relationships tools as an investor, while maintaining unusually close long-term relationships with founders who often call him first for advice.
