Maria 01 Builders’ Breakfast: From founding unicorns to funding them with Rajul Garg, Founder and Managing Partner at Leo Capital
Join us for the next edition of Builders’ Breakfast, where top-tier founders and operators share real-life stories. The wins, the failures, and everything in between.
After the summer break, we are bringing Builders’ Breakfast back with a conversation on what it takes to build, scale, and invest in ambitious technology companies.
This time, we sit down with Rajul Garg, Founder and Managing Partner at Leo Capital.
From founding companies that became global technology leaders to backing the next generation of startups, Rajul has spent decades on both sides of the startup journey: as a builder and as an investor.
Rajul co-founded Pine Labs, now a leading payments company in India, and GlobalLogic, a global leader in digital product engineering. Today, as the Founder and Managing Partner of Leo Capital, he invests in early-stage Tech & AI companies across India, Asia & Europe, supporting founders at the very beginning of their journeys.
With over 25 years of experience building companies, investing in startups, and navigating the challenges of entrepreneurship, Rajul brings a unique perspective on what makes companies grow from early ideas into category-defining businesses.
