Being an intervention leader, he aims to drive value to investors by connecting them with the most promising startups with regional and global potential. In January 2020, he took over as CEO of the Lankan Angel Network, Sri Lanka’s first alliance of angel investors. Together with his team, he raised the first Angel Fund dedicated to early-stage startups in Sri Lanka. He firmly believes that success breeds success. As such, the Angel Fund brings together 100 of the most successful Sri Lankans from around the world. They represent over 20 industries & disciplines and are from Asia, APAC, Europe & Noth America.
He obtained my bachelor's from the University of London in 2009 and began my entrepreneurial crusade.
