As the CEO and Co-Founder of Electra Vehicles, I have had the privilege of working closely with Kunal and observing the impressive impact of his fund in the world of cleantech. I would like to highlight Kunal Sethi's expertise and vision in the cleantech space. His strategic thinking, extensive industry knowledge, and ability to identify and nurture startups have consistently impressed us. His ability to identify disruptive and innovative ventures has resulted in a valuable founder’s ecosystem. Prithvi Ventures has excelled at identifying and supporting visionary entrepreneurs driving transformative change. This aligns perfectly with Electra Vehicles, philosophy of embracing innovation and exploring new ways to drive electrification forward. A common theme throughout our interactions with Kunal Sethi and Prithvi Ventures is their collaborative approach to working with our team. The fund has an outstanding track record of building strong partnerships and providing straightforward thoughts and ideas to accelerate our growth and enhance our business strategy. This collaborative approach has contributed greatly to Electra Vehicles, success. Their exceptional leadership, visionary thinking, and commitment to fostering innovation make them an invaluable partner for any entrepreneur or company seeking to revolutionize cleantech.

Of all our investors, Kunal and the Prithvi team have been the most responsive to our investor updates and frequently reached out with suggestions, ideas for tackling current challenges, and potential connections. I have also appreciated their ongoing efforts in sharing best practices that they have seen from other companies and have found that has helped us think more deeply about how we can continue to improve our operations and communications. Further, I have deeply appreciated the Prithvi team's deep empathy for founders and the personal challenges that we all face at one point or another along the way. As a founder, one of the hardest things to find are people who are "in your corner" no matter what and who are there to support you personally to navigate and handle these challenges. Through our interactions, it has become clear to me that Kunal and Prithvi are in that rare group to whom I could bring any sort of challenge when I need of advice or just need someone to talk things through with. From our recent conversations, I have also been impressed by their commitment to clarify and quantify investing for impact in a way that I have not seen from other 'impact investors' we have spoken with (our current investors or otherwise). I have appreciated their support and push for us to develop a clear, increasingly quantified impact thesis backed up by third-party data. While challenging at our relatively early stage, I have begun to appreciate how this exercise has sharpened our thinking and improved our credibility with our corporate customers and would not have prioritized it as early without the Prithvi team raising this to us.
