Amrita Barthakur

Hi, I’m Amrita.

I’m a lawyer-turned-VC with over 20 years of experience in the India consumer brand and tech ecosystem, advising early-stage, tech-enabled companies across F&B, home, personal care, fashion, consumables, and marketplaces.

I began my journey at Saama as General Counsel. I have since transitioned to the investment team as Partner, focusing on consumer brands and marketplaces. Prior to Saama, I headed the investments practice at Nishith Desai Associates, where I worked with top venture capital and private equity funds in India.

Apart from my work at Saama, I am passionate about initiatives that support and empower women.

Outside of work, my life revolves around my family. We enjoy traveling together and discovering new places, cuisines, and experiences.
