Co-Build a VC Fund in Public: Day 6 (Building strong founding teams) I am kicking off this year with a very special news! Meet the third member of our super hero squad at Ortella Global Capital - OG Capital: Gaurav Verma — fondly known as GV. He is the heart and soul behind our Consumer Investments, bringing his hands-on approach that has helped shape so many amazing success stories. I have known GV for about half a decade now, and over these years, our conversations about consumer brands, market dynamics, and entrepreneurship have only deepened my admiration for his expertise and operational capabilities. We first met through a mutual connection, and from day one, we hit it off. After years of ideating together and building our visions, it was clear we were meant to team up for something truly impactful. GV is a seasoned operator with a proven track record in building and scaling consumer businesses. He has an instinct for emerging trends and a deep understanding of what consumers want. His superpowers include: · A deep understanding of consumer behaviour and market shifts, · An unmatched ability to build unforgettable brand identities that resonate with millions, and · An unmatched ability to scale consumer products profitably from the ground up As OG Capital’s Co-founder & Head of Consumer Investments, GV plays an essential role in co-building our portfolio companies. He has a rare ability to take companies from 0 to 1 and then from 1 to category leaders. When GV is not busy growing the next big consumer brand, you will likely find him cycling through the city or capturing beautiful moments through his camera. The way he brings energy, creativity, and insight into everything he does is truly contagious for our team. We are beyond excited today to have GV with us as we continue our journey to make a major shift in the venture capital landscape through co-building. With GV and his superpowers on our side, we are not just backing companies; we are building the next-gen unicorns and shaping the future of consumer innovation. He is one of those passionate, quirky enthusiasts who wakes up at 5 a.m. on a cold winter morning and cycles all the way from Gurgaon Sector 65 to Delhi just to have chole bhature. But that's not where it ends. Afterwards, we have our morning calls, during which he eagerly tells me how delicious his breakfast was! Finding your partners-in-crime isthe hardest. Although, I have known GV for ages, I spent enormous amount of time figuring out whether we can work with each other or not - this becomes super critical and the foundation of building a successful fund/company. Do reach out to him if you are building something really cool in consumer space. GV, welcome to the OG family!
