Biography

Neeraj Agrawal joined Battery Ventures in 2000 after working as a product manager at RealNetworks and an operating executive at SkyTV, building a career focused on SaaS and B2B software investing. He led Battery's investment in Wayfair in 2011, jumping at the chance after having known co-founder Niraj Shah since their days together at Cornell University.

He has appeared on the Forbes Midas List for ten consecutive years, reaching as high as #9 in 2019, and was named to the New York Times' Top 20 Venture Capitalists Worldwide in 2017.
