Dhruv Punia is an early-career research and strategy analyst with experience across investor-readiness consulting and multi-region operations. He works at the intersection of structured research, financial analysis, and narrative building for early-stage businesses.

Most recently at VKG Consultants, he drove a ten-week investor-readiness mandate for a B2B SaaS startup, building competitive landscape maps across five industry verticals and co-developing founder narratives and GTM playbooks that supported a ₹25.4 Cr probability-weighted investor pipeline.

At the Federation of Indian Women Entrepreneurs, he managed scheduling, resource allocation, and reporting across more than fifty live government assessment projects spanning four states. He surfaced a regional assessor coverage gap in Karnataka that, once addressed, improved operational performance in the state.

He holds a degree in Business Economics from Delhi University and works daily with GenAI tools to accelerate research turnaround and stress-test assumptions.
