Tejeshwi Sharma

Tejeshwi is driven by a passion for technology and its transformative potential. Their journey into venture capital began unexpectedly at Sequoia, where an early experience left them with more questions than answers. One question stood out—what would drive India’s progress over the next 50 years? They believed technology would play a role but weren’t sure how significant its impact would be.

In 2015, Tejeshwi moved to the Bay Area and was immersed in the Silicon Valley ecosystem. There, they realized that technology is the defining force shaping the world. Through extensive research and travel to various developing countries, they gained a deeper understanding of global innovation. A pivotal trip to China, where they witnessed rapid technological transformation, solidified their belief—that technology would be the key driver of India’s progress.

Today, as a leader at Peak XV Partners, Tejeshwi is dedicated to supporting founders who are using technology to create a lasting impact in India and beyond. They are passionate about building the future, empowering entrepreneurs, and driving innovation that will shape the next generation.
