Unfiltered: VC AMA with Sunil Nagaraj

Inside the event

Join us at AI House for a founder-focused conversation with Sunil Nagaraj, who leads Ubiquity Ventures, a seed-stage fund based in Palo Alto that invests in software beyond the screen. He writes first checks into technical founders and takes a board seat at seed, including at unicorns Halter, which replaced cattle fencing with software and solar-powered collars, and Loft Orbital, which flies customer payloads on shared satellites. Few Bay Area investors have written more deeptech checks in Seattle than Sunil. His Seattle history goes back to a 2003 Microsoft internship and now spans about ten investments on Seattle-based teams, including the 2014 seed round in Auth0 at an $8 million valuation, seven years before Okta bought it for $6.5 billion. Through Ubiquity Ventures he has backed Seattle-based Esper, ElastixAI, Eclipse Space, Thruwave, Olis Robotics, Caddi, and BluePill. His read on the city: all the talent, more hunger, far less noise! AI House Managing Director Jacob Colker will sit down with Sunil to talk about what "pre-incorporation" conviction looks like in practice, how he thinks about physical/hardware-adjacent software markets, and what he looks for in founders building outside the usual SaaS playbook.
