He takes pride in often being a founder’s first institutional investor and believer, and his goal is to be the person founders turn to in the moments that matter most.

What Founders Say

"Kamran was the first investor to believe in ShopMy, and from the start, he’s been a steady, analytical force on our board. He doesn’t just offer advice—he dives in, from helping us refine our models to guiding us through fundraising. Kamran really puts in the work and feels like part of the team. He’s also just a great person to work with; anyone would be lucky to have him in their corner."
