Global tech fund was a challenge: 40u40 2024 Rohit Bhat

Rohit Bhat, Co-Founder and Managing Partner, Airavat Capital, along with his Co-founder Suraj Subramaniam manages an AUM of $100 million at the asset management firm. Both Rohit and Suraj, batchmates at the Wharton School, the University of Pennsylvania started their entrepreneurial journey from scratch in 2017.

Now they steer two strategies at the firm -– India and global technology with two funds in each of them. Rohit draws inspiration from the Warren Buffett and Charlie Munger partnership. “As an entrepreneur in partnership, my favourite partnership for a very long time has been of Warren Buffet and Charlie Munger, not only because of the scale that they achieved but the way they did it,” says Rohit, adding that sound capital allocation is one of the key attributes to be learnt from the duo.
