Hi, I’m Ravi Warrier. My entrepreneurial journey, ignited in 1995 by necessity and a passion for technology, led to my first venture in software development. This early experience was pivotal, teaching me the essence of creation, problem-solving, and the thrill of turning ideas into reality. For a young person of 18, making a company that had revenues that reached 8-figures by the time we shut down four years later was a dream come true. 

The internet revolution beckoned in 1996, and I was at its forefront in Bombay, creating websites when the concept was novel. While, not as successful as it’s software development counterpart, for the period where few had internet and even few knew what a ‘.com’ was, it was still successful as we completed 18 projects in two years. 

My corporate tenure at Satyam, HCL and Virtusa honed my problem-solving skills, but my heart remained with startups. In 2012, I started Acutance Consulting, diving into the startup ecosystem, aiding in business modeling, product design, and marketing strategies. It was here, working with over 5000 startup founders and team members, consulting with over 100 startups across five continents, and coaching 25 founders in business and leadership, that I recognized a crucial gap.

This realization led to the creation of Funding Pitchcraft in 2023. Our mission is clear: to empower founders in articulating their stories to investors. With my experience, including helping 19 startups raise equity capital and guiding others through successful fundraising activities, I aim to transform startup pitches into compelling narratives.

At Funding Pitchcraft, we go beyond mere funding; we delve into the ‘why’ of your startup, crafting narratives that resonate with your vision and passion. We believe in the art of storytelling and strategic communication, blending numbers with narratives that connect. Join me on this journey, and let’s turn your vision into a story that captivates every investor.
