About Karthik Reddy:
Is venture capital about funding the next unicorn or backing exceptional founders who are hardwired to think differently and bet against conventional wisdom?
My next guest on The One Percent Project is the humble, decisive communicator and counterintuitive thinker Karthik Reddy. Karthik is the co-founder and Managing Partner at Blume Ventures, one of India's pre-eminent early-stage venture funds. At over $600 Million in AUM, Blume has made 150+ investments across three funds. Karthik also serves as the Chairperson of the Executive Committee at the IVCA (India's Venture and Alternative Capital Association) - India's apex association for Venture & PE Funds, working alongside the Indian Government in policy & regulatory issues concerning Alternative Investment Funds.
In this 2 part series, I speak to Karthik about his upbringing and the values he has infused into Blume over the years.
Listen in to learn Karthik's insights on resilience in building his career, the X-Unicorn hypothesis, why exceptional founders are mutants, how he assesses risk and much more.
