About Ravi Mohan

Ravi Mohan brings an unusually global operating background to enterprise SaaS investing, having co-run a decision-support software business in India serving multinationals across Asia before joining venture capital, and he specifically seeks "entrepreneur-investor fit" with bootstrapped founders who have already achieved product-market fit rather than those generically chasing funding. He focuses on companies that can reach $100 million in revenue with strong profit margins, drawing from 25 years of experience through multiple economic downturns to provide hands-on operational guidance to founders during both growth and crisis periods.

Shasta Ventures built one of the few Sand Hill Road firms with a repeatable thesis around connected hardware and IoT at the seed/Series A stage, driven by co-founder Rob Coneybeer's early conviction that "hardware is the new software" and proven through their defining 20x return on Nest's $3.2B Google acquisition. The firm pairs this hardware focus with a concentrated approach to early-stage enterprise SaaS, using structured programs like Ignite and domain-specific operating partners to help companies reach $10M+ ARR rather than leaving platform support as a vague promise.
