Hi, I’m Arpan.
I’ve always been drawn to structured thinking and problem-solving, especially when combined with an understanding of human psyche. I enjoy connecting the dots between businesses, markets, and people—which naturally led me to the world of early-stage startups.
Before Saama, I worked at Alteria Capital, a venture debt fund which gave me a bird’s-eye view of the Indian startup ecosystem through a horizontally diverse portfolio spanning sectors and stages. I did my graduation in Business with a major in Finance from NMIMS University, Mumbai.
Outside of work, you’ll find me chasing footballs, perfecting my badminton drops, curating chaotic Spotify playlists, or explaining to friends why “this is definitely Chelsea’s season.”
