Neeraj Gupta

Co-Founder & Partner, Cervin Ventures

About

Neeraj Gupta co-founded and led two successful IT services companies—Cymbal Corporation (acquired by Patni/Capgemini) and Nexient—before becoming a venture investor, giving him unusually deep operator experience, and later ran global sales and marketing at publicly listed Patni with responsibility for roughly $700M in revenue. He completed his Kauffman Fellowship at Cervin Ventures itself under co-founder Preetish Nijhawan, an uncommon path where his fellowship and current fund are directly connected.
