About Shani Kant

Hello, I\'m Shani, a results-driven Fundraising executive.My mission for creating a thriving startup ecosystem has led me to connect with over 500 entrepreneurs and 100+ investors.For me, the real impact lies in the ability to support and empower the next generation of game-changing startups. By leveraging my skills and experience in investment evaluation, financial modelling, business development, fundraising, and investment strategy, I strive to help entrepreneurs turn their ideas into reality. I believe in playing long-term games with long-term people, and I am committed to creating value that lasts.While leading investment banking operations at 10Horizon, I have launched several innovative projects, including a quant-based smallcase strategy that outperformed the market in 2020-21. I have also raised over $5M for early-stage startups and partnered with Ah! Ventures, an angel network, to support budding entrepreneurs.However, it wasn\'t until the pandemic that I discovered my true passion - the dynamic and ever-changing world of startups. My journey began with a fascination for the stock markets and an admiration for the legendary investor Warren Buffett. I began studying the stock markets during my college days. My background in CA, CFA and interest in the stock market has given me valuable insights into business analysis, finance and economics (and make money!)I am always eager to connect with like-minded individuals, whether you\'re an entrepreneur seeking funding or an investor planning an investment. Let\'s collaborate and explore how we can create long-term value for all stakeholders in the startup ecosystem. Together, we can build a better future.
