Shravan Narayen, Partner at IVP: Enterprise Product Strategy & Scaling

Shravan Narayen is a Partner at IVP, where he invests in founders who are deeply driven to solve meaningful customer problems. He has worked across every stage of a startup’s journey—from early product development to IPO—which helps him support teams with real operating experience. At Snowflake, he saw how big technical improvements can completely change how businesses operate. At Confluent, he learned that building a great product and successfully bringing it to market go hand in hand. Earlier in his career, he worked at early-stage startups, which gave him a deep respect for the process of finding product-market fit. Shravan believes that keeping an open mind is one of the most important qualities in venture—every conversation with a founder is a chance to learn something new and potentially discover the next big company.
