Raeeza Tameez

VC, Leo Capital
  • Bangalore

A Chartered Accountant by qualification, an Entrepreneur at heart and a VC by profession, I have gathered a rich set of experiences and skillsets in the intersection of finance and entrepreneurship.

My experience of building my own startup where I did all the tasks from building a team to building a product while at the same time strategizing and setting milestones and pitching for grants across multiple platforms has really helped me learn and understand business development beyond any MBA could teach me.

My deep passion and undying belief that startups have the power to solve pressing problems across all domains and industries drew me into the Venture Capital Industry enabling me to invest my time into supporting the creation of disruptive startups and witnessing the journey from seed stage.

My enriching experience in financial reporting and audit domains have helped me build skills around financial analysis, due diligence, risk management, professional skepticism and statutory compliances.

On a personality front, I would rate myself really high on people skills, adaptability skills and leadership skills. I thrive in pressure situations and have a positive attitude towards life!

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."

Along the way, I’ve also been fortunate to make some great friendships and connections too."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
