Note from Nitesh Banta

Hi, I’m Nitesh Banta, a serial entrepreneur and angel investor. The companies I’ve started and funded have raised over $2B in venture capital and are worth over $15B combined. 
My current company, B12, uses AI to help businesses get online. We have raised tens of millions in funding from investors including General Catalyst, Breyer Capital, SV Angel and top angels. 
Prior to B12 I was a VC at General Catalyst. My angel and VC portfolio includes unicorns like BigCommerce (NASDAQ: BIGC), Celo, Getaround (where I was on the founding team), Instabase and Grammarly. Some of my other notable investments include first round checks into Pilot.com, Tagomi (acquired by Coinbase), Brainly, and Mark43
While at General Catalyst I co-founded Rough Draft Ventures: A venture fund for students, run by students. I remain an adviser to Rough Draft, which has backed over 150 startups to date. 
Moving forward, I plan to do my early-stage tech investments from this rolling fund. The fund is anchored by Spearhead, Naval Ravikant and Jeff Fagnan. 
Given my full-time role as the CEO of B12, I will limit the size of this fund and number of investors.
Thanks for your support.

The performance of past deals or a lead investors' track record is not a guarantee of future returns. Venture capital fund investments are inherently risky and illiquid. Such investments involve a high degree of risk and are suitable only for sophisticated and accredited investors.
AngelList and its affiliates do not provide investment advice to investors. The information on this page should not be relied upon as research, investment advice or a recommendation of any kind. Information on this page is qualified in its entirety by the fund's Limited Partnership Agreement, Private Placement Memorandum and Subscription Agreement, which should be reviewed carefully prior to making an investment decision. Please see these documents for full details regarding risks, minimum investment, fees and expenses. The Fund Lead and the fund's investment advisor have the right to waive or charge additional carry to certain investors. The fund's legal name may be different from the name used above.
This fund may accept new investors after the fund undergoes a valuation update. Certain potential investors in the fund may then have access to materially different information concerning fund value at the time of their investment.
Current or future portfolio companies in this fund may use AngelList's recruiting platform and may pay an affiliate of the fund's investment adviser for premium recruiting tools and services. This may create a potential conflict of interest for the investment adviser, which you will consent to by subscribing to the fund.
