Hi, I’m KB.

I’ve spent 25 years across venture capital, private equity, and investment banking, but what’s stuck with me most is the value of building genuine, lasting relationships. That’s at the heart of my founder-first philosophy at Saama, where I’ve been part of the journey from day one.

My early years were rooted in finance – starting with Arthur Andersen during its India launch, followed by roles at ANZ and Ambit, where I led banking operations across South India. Over time, I found my true calling in working closely with founders to help shape category-leading companies from the ground up.

Outside of work, I’m a jazz enthusiast and amateur guitarist, passionate about building India’s live music and audiophile community. I live with my wife and two kids, and yes – I would rather start any meal backward with the dessert first and often daydream of moonlighting as a pastry chef.
