About Akshay Bhushan

Ravi Mhatre co-founded Lightspeed and has built a reputation as a "long-cycle" partner who backs infrastructure companies like Nutanix and Rubrik from early stages through scale, often serving on boards for over a decade. He combines his operating experience in enterprise technology with a "conviction wins, depth compounds" philosophy, going very deep on a small number of founders and markets rather than chasing short-term trends.
