Manasvi Yadav is an early-career research analyst with experience spanning venture capital and strategic planning. She brings a strong research instinct to nascent, poorly-mapped markets and a track record of delivering recommendations that shape real investment and operational decisions.

Most recently at gradCapital, she worked in the founders' office with visibility across fund operations, owning research verticals end to end across AI, biotech, and frontier tech.

At gradCapital, she led the full research workstream for a proposed biotechnology arm, covering firm benchmarking across the US and EU, location strategy, and candidate screening. Her recommendations on hub location and the first hire were both adopted.

She also ran independent market research on an AI co-scientist platform, synthesizing complex technical signals from Google DeepMind and AlphaFold into a clear pass recommendation the fund acted on.

At Tata Motors, she designed and synthesized a qualitative survey of over 150 B2B commercial vehicle customers, translating responses into a smart-search feature concept developed with the product and ML teams.
