I'm Praveen Babu. Founder of Altorise, a growth agency I started in 2014. Two decades in global sales and marketing across SaaS, AI, fintech, mobility, and blockchain, with clients from Fortune 500 companies to one-person startups, across the USA, UK, France, and MENA.

This blog is where I capture a constant stream of unfiltered ideas and opinions. Business, growth, technology, geopolitics, and whatever else connects. My favorite thing is connecting dots that don't look related until they are.

Some context on me: I committed to entrepreneurship at 16 and launched my own venture by 30. At 19, I successfully petitioned the Indian Supreme Court for the rights of 1,800+ students. I live in Mumbai with Urvashi, my wife and co-pilot through it all, our two kids, and Amia the Shih Tzu. I enjoy 24-hour road trips, am a die-hard BMW fan, and play Fortnite despite being awful at it.

If you're a founder or investor and want to go deeper, here's how we can work together.
