About
Satish Dharmaraj is an immigrant who came to the U.S. with $5k in debt and built his career from Sun Microsystems (where he helped create Java Server Pages) to founding Zimbra (sold to Yahoo for $350M) before becoming a Managing Director at Redpoint. He has a rare pattern of writing detailed market theses and then finding teams building exactly those products—like when he wrote about rebuilding mobile-first email in 2013, then worked with Acompli, which Microsoft bought for $200M just 20 months later.
