Our Founder and General Partner Pratekk Agarwaal Returns to Indian Institute of Management, Kozhikode: Sharing, Learning, and Growing Together Last week, our Founder and GP, Pratekk Agarwaal, revisited his #almamater, the Indian Institute of Management, Kozhikode, in an inspiring journey of reconnecting with his roots. Returning as a guest, he shared his entrepreneurial journey and insights with the next generation of leaders. Over 200+ bright PGP students attended a session on Leadership & Entrepreneurship. Pratekk shared his transition from a corporate career to founding GrowthCap Ventures and developing an investment thesis focused on transformative ideas in #fintech and #SaaS. The students’ thoughtful questions and curiosity reaffirmed their potential as future changemakers. Special thanks to the Placements for coordinating this seamless session. - Time with Visionary Leaders and Professors: Pratekk spent valuable moments with the esteemed Director of IIM Kozhikode, Prof. Debashis Chatterjee, and distinguished faculty members Prof. Ashutosh Sarkar, Prof. (Dr.) Roopak Gupta, and GM Lijo Panichappillil. Discussions on GrowthCap’s initiatives and IIM Kozhikode’s role in fostering entrepreneurship and innovation added depth to the visit. Receiving a signed copy of Prof. Chatterjee’s book, "Leadership Chronicles", was a proud highlight. - A Grateful Reflection: The vibrant campus, inspiring interactions, and warm hospitality made this visit truly unforgettable.

Our founder, Pratekk Agarwaal, recently had the extraordinary privilege of attending a gathering that epitomized the essence of innovation, collaboration, and forward-thinking leadership. The highlight of the event was the opportunity to engage with two legendary figures—Tim Draper, a global icon in venture capital, and Nishith Desai, a visionary leader whose work has profoundly influenced the legal and entrepreneurial ecosystems. Tim Draper’s insights on the transformative potential of technology and the evolving landscape of venture capital were nothing short of inspiring. His ability to envision the future and articulate the opportunities that lie ahead is a testament to his unparalleled expertise. Similarly, Nishith Bhai’s deep understanding of law, business, and innovation offered invaluable perspectives that resonated with every attendee. His forward-thinking approach continues to redefine boundaries and set benchmarks for success. The setting, Imaginarium AliGunjan, was the perfect environment for this remarkable exchange of ideas. Surrounded by creativity and innovation, the event brought together a diverse group of founders, investors, and thought leaders. The conversations ranged from bold entrepreneurial ventures to the critical role of collaboration in shaping the future of industries. It was a testament to the power of collective thinking and shared purpose. At GrowthCap Ventures, we are inspired by these experiences to continue our mission of empowering founders to build transformative businesses. We are committed to fostering meaningful collaborations, supporting bold ideas, and driving impact in the venture capital ecosystem. A heartfelt thank you to everyone who made this event extraordinary: Suril Desai, Sapan Kadakia, Trupti Sharma, Ranu Vohra, Naveen Raju, Ashish Shah, Aniket Deb, Asha Jadeja, Shloka Shetty, Roli Gupta, Gaurav Saboo, TiE Mumbai, Mihir Parikh, Raj Nair, Nishith Desai Associates These experiences reaffirm our belief in the power of innovation and collaboration to shape a brighter, more impactful future.
