#100XTeams is a platform to discuss ideas to help companies to be productive and make their team more efficient. We bring like-minded yet diverse individuals together to connect, learn, teach, help, build and belong. Some leaders divide. Some subtract. A few leaders add. But great leaders MULTIPLY.
Surbhi is CEO and co-founder of Symbl.ai. Symbl is bringing to life her vision for a programmable platform that empowers developers to deploy conversational intelligence in their collaboration products and workflows. She co-founded Symbl (previously Rammer.ai) almost 2 years ago and was part of the Techstars Seattle ’19 class. Symbl raised an early-stage venture round of 1.8M six months ago. Symbl used the funding to grow a team of tech junkies to 25 people primarily distributed between India and Seattle. She comes with experience from technical and customer-obsessed roles in both startups and enterprises such as Nevis Networks and Amdocs. Before co-founding Symbl, she worked in the Conversational AI space with a focus on delivering value to Telco users. She is an advocate for Women in AI with a personal mission to inspire more women to work in Data Science.
In this session, Surbhi will cover:
- Key learnings for immigrant founders building a venture-backed business in the US
- How to leverage being an Indian and having roots in India to add to capital efficiency and velocity to the business
- Building B2B businesses in AI
- Raising venture capital
- The importance of networking
