Banker turned Operator
Operator turned Investor
HARIS KHURSHID
A FEW THINKS
UP FRONTS
I didn't learn capital markets from a classroom. I learned them from sitting inside 15+ cap tables as the operator responsible for the numbers — then writing checks as the GP on the other side. I've raised capital on three continents. I've deployed it in markets most funds won't touch. That's a different education than most people in this industry get.

Investments made — not observed

I Don't Just Talk.
I deploy.
