About Vijay Mehra

I’m a technology entrepreneur and commercial real estate investor and operator who builds where the industry has the biggest blind spots. I founded and bootstrapped Rethink into a leading Salesforce-based platform with significant multi-year revenue growth and a successful private equity exit in 2021.After the exit, I expanded deeper into investing and operating across a multitude of real estate projects, working on adaptive reuse and value-add efforts. I also invest in early-stage technology companies from pre-seed through Series C, supporting founders building the next generation of platforms across real estate, finance, and enterprise software.My work today sits at the intersection of CRE, technology, and operational execution. I stay close to the details - underwriting, data, customer pain points, and the realities of building companies that last. I enjoy working with founders, operators, and teams who want to move fast, think clearly, and build with discipline.Above all, I’m a committed father of three and an active member of the communities I serve. I believe in building with purpose, leading with integrity, and helping others navigate growth with confidence.
