Anand Yadav is a researcher who goes to the ground. When a question matters, he talks to the people living the problem, not just the people writing about it.

He is currently a Research Fellow at Katha VC, where he meets fintech founders directly, evaluates their businesses, and writes investment memos that shape how the firm engages with early-stage companies.

His independent research on MediQuik, a B2B pharmacy procurement idea, came from a personal experience and led to hundreds of conversations with pharmacy owners across smaller Indian towns. He mapped the supply chain problem, identified the pain points, and built a structured business case from the ground up.

He brings the same instinct to legal drafting work, using AI tools to move faster without losing accuracy, and to his ongoing reading of India's startup ecosystem through newsletters and founder communities.
