Sequoia Capital recently closed its latest fund at $2.85 billion with $2 billion earmarked for seed and growth stage ventures in India, and a stand-alone $850-million dedicated vehicle for Southeast Asia. The firm continues to be the largest venture capital investor across all stages in both regions – it has put in more than $5.5 billion in India alone since 2017, making over 400 investors. Sequoia Capital India and SE Asia managing director Shailendra Singh will join us for a fireside chat to discuss how companies can navigate the funding winter, and what the future holds for the startup ecosystem. With some of the VC firm’s portfolio companies being hit by governance lapses, Singh will also highlight the proactive steps the firm is taking to address these concerns, and its pledge for greater governance, even as it continues to work with founders to build sustainable businesses designed to endure.
