Upsquare

What Upsquare is:
AI-first venture builder that co-builds, acquires, and scales tech businesses across SaaS, VoIP, and digital-transformation markets.

What I lead:
- Strategy, capital allocation, and venture road-mapping
- A 200-person execution engine covering product, AI engineering, design, and GTM
- Two internal platforms: 
• House of Starts–venture builder turning early traction into companies
• UCS–consulting arm that embeds AI and cloud at enterprise scale

Key results to date:
- 12+ profitable ventures co-created (ARR range: $1M–$8M)
- 2 strategic exits (incl. mobile-first video storytelling platform, 2017)
- $10M SaaS acquisition integrated and doubled ARR in 18 months
 • Portfolio revenue CAGR > 25 % for five consecutive years

Current focus:
1. Partnering with founders who need product + AI muscle to reach Series A/B
2. Acquiring tech SMEs in Europe & the US for roll-up and platform plays
3. Co-developing AI transformation programs with mid-market corporates

What makes Upsquare different:
→ We co-invest and build—shared upside, shared risk
→ AI execution is in-house; speed > slide-ware
→ Culture of clear systems + long-term alignment

Founder & CEO

20 + early-stage cheques • LP in 4 funds (Europe & India)

After a multimillion-dollar exit from my mobile-first venture in 2017, I added “backer” to my builder DNA... supporting founders who exhibit the right MSDx mix (Mindset, Skillset, Drive, eXecution).

How I invest:
- First or follow-on cheques in AI, SaaS, and digital-infrastructure plays
- Intellectual + financial capital, plus Upsquare’s EMEA ↔ India network
- Hands-on product, GTM, and ops guidance ... no tourist money

If you’re an early-stage founder with MSDx and a bold path to scale, let’s talk.

Angel Investor & LP

House of Starts

Gujarat, on India’s west coast, breathes entrepreneurship.
“Dhandha” isn’t a dream here ... it’s DNA.

Most IT firms sidestep the state, fearing every pro will start a rival shop.
I saw the opposite: untapped potential.

So, inside Upsquare, I launched House of Starts—a program where talent co-creates ventures using our tech, capital, and know-how.

Demand exploded. We spun it into a standalone venture builder.
Today, House of Starts partners with individuals, startups, and SMBs to turn bold ideas into real businesses.

Purpose remains clear: co-create a shared future ... one venture at a time.

Founder

Early Career (2001-2012):
→ Software Engineer (Pfiger Software) → 
→ Project & Program Manager (Gateway/GTL) → 
→ Engineering Director (Automation Anywhere)

Built & shipped (with some overlaps with Upsquare):
- Pure Software (Domestic B2B apps), 
- Yories (storytelling & publishing),  
- Space-O Digicom (200+ mobile apps, 3M+ downloads)

Early Career — Engineer → Director

I help tech businesses grow faster by embedding AI into what they already do—products, operations, and go-to-market.

As Founder & CEO at Upsquare, I’ve co-built 12+ ventures, exited from two, and grown a 200+ team across engineering, design, and consulting.

Right now, I’m focused on:
- Partnering with aligned founders to scale their AI-first products
- Creating value through acquisitions and strategic co-building
- Helping corporate leaders integrate AI into their business ecosystems

If you’re building something valuable—and want to go further, faster — let’s talk.

These days, I spend a lot of time exploring Systems Thinking:

In that journey, I’ve realized something powerful:
Visuals change perception faster than words ever can.

When ideas are drawn, not just described, they bypass analysis and spark clarity.

That’s why I collect visuals that reshape how I see work, life, and growth.

Here are 9 such visuals that changed how I think —
about time, focus, success, and resilience.

They’re not motivational posters.
They’re perception shifters.
