Before becoming an investor, Daniel Gulati founded and sold the fashion marketplace FashionStake, and he later recognized the potential in Away partly because he had once considered starting his own luggage brand, often investing before a product or clear traction even existed. At Comcast Ventures, he led 17 seed investments in consumer startups that grew to a combined enterprise value of more than $4 billion, built on a background that includes studying at UNSW and Harvard Business School as a George F. Baker Fellow and Arthur Rock Entrepreneurial Fellow, and co-authoring the New York Times bestseller Passion & Purpose.
