Biography

Kiran Mysore is a Partner at UTEC. UTEC's own page states he moved from AI research into venture capital and joined UTEC in January 2018, and that he is responsible for seed and early stage investment in AI, including AI applications in IT, healthcare and physical sciences. The page states verbatim that he currently serves as 取締役またはオブザーバー, director or observer, at Maieutic Semiconductors, InfiniMind, Aerem, Eureka Robotics, Peach Cars, Tricog Health, Bugworks Research, AiLA-X and ZAMS; because the page does not say which of these are board seats and which are observer seats, no board seat is recorded for him. The page separately records in the past tense that he was a director of Agara (PM Labs), which was acquired by Coinbase in October 2021. Before UTEC he was head of India and Southeast Asia operations at Deloitte Tohmatsu Venture Support, supporting more than 50 deep technology startups, and earlier worked in corporate analysis at Cleartrip India; he co-founded the student led venture Kriya. He holds a master's degree from the University of Tokyo TMI programme, completed in 2016 and specialising in deep learning, and was a full scholarship recipient at the University of Tokyo School of Engineering. He was named on the Forbes Asia 30 Under 30 list for finance and venture capital in 2020.
