The company you keep on the climb matters as much as the summit. Feeling grateful for the people at Peak XV Partners who make it possible to contribute, learn, and play a small part in some very big ambitions @sjs_day1@mobhat@gvravishankar@RajanAnandan@i_sakshichopra ❤️🙏🏼
Three years ago today, we rebranded as Peak XV (Peak Fifteen), the original name of Mount Everest. The name speaks directly to our ambition: to aim for the highest peak there is, and to partner deeply with world-class founders making the climb.
Over the last few years, we have continued to evolve, expanding our presence across regions, deepening our work in AI and deeptech, and partnering with founders building for global maxima.
Today, we are unveiling a refreshed brand identity and website that reflect this evolution while staying rooted in the values and beliefs that define us.
Our new logo and visual system are inspired by Everest and the climb itself: the rugged terrain, the essential tools, and the shared discipline, resilience, and belief required to reach the summit.

We're as optimistic about the future as we've ever been.
Never settle in the foothills.

Pace of value creation is compounding but not all growth is equal.
From Mohit Bhatnagar (@mobhat), MD, Peak XV, in a recent chat with @FortuneIndia:
A decade ago, it took ~10 years for companies to reach $100M in revenue.
Today, the best companies are getting there in ~5.
Metrics that matter → Repeat organic traffic that indicates real PMF.
Low quality metrics → Paying for users who don't engage. Free users driving spikes.

🚨 #FortuneIndiaStartupSummit2026 | “Quality growth is not just about scale—it is about real product-market fit. If consumers see value, come back repeatedly and drive organic word-of-mouth, that is true quality growth. The metrics we watch closely are repeat usage and organic traction. What has fundamentally changed in India is the speed of value creation—companies are scaling much faster, driven by digital payments, rising consumer spending and accelerating adoption. India’s growth story is only getting started,” says Mohit Bhatnagar, Managing Director, Peak XV Partners.

🚨 #FortuneIndiaStartupSummit2026 | “To adopt and adapt, you need founders who can build enduring companies. A few founders will use the AI opportunity to reinvent themselves completely. AI is definitely an enabler—another powerful tool, and a positive sign. Gone are the days when people built 200–300 member teams; today, people are building companies with far leaner teams,” says Mohit Bhatnagar (@mobhat) | Managing Director, PeakXV (@peakxvpartners)

🔥 🎬 Our first drop of the talks from our Peak XV & @_surgeahead Immersion is live now - featuring Sequoia Capital, Vanta, and Linear.
Here's a snippet of Alfred Lin (@Alfred_Lin), Partner at @sequoia, on what makes for outlier founders and why you can’t pattern-match them.
Our founders came back from these three days recharged, with new ideas, sharper thinking, and a higher bar for what great looks like. We hope these do the same for you. 👉 Check out the playlist: https://t.co/81VeAdeIn3
We wrapped up Peak XV | @_surgeahead Immersion last week with Day 3 starting with an incredible session with @Airbnb co-founder Nathan Blecharczyk (@nathanblec). The biggest takeaway for founders? Survival is a creative act.
Before the $80B market cap, there were:
✅ Pitch meetings where investors literally walked out mid-sentence.
✅ $40,000 in credit card debt.
✅ A $40 cereal box "hack" to pay the rent.
The difference between a failed experiment and an iconic brand? Refusing to quit when the "math" doesn't make sense yet.
Hearing @Alfred_Lin in conversation with @sjs_day1 last evening was a masterclass in long-term thinking and founder-first conviction.
From Airbnb to DoorDash to now at @peakxvpartners I’ve been fortunate to build alongside and learn from leaders who think in decades, not quarters.
Grateful for rooms like this! #letsgobuild 🚀
Grateful to our Limited Partners for giving us the opportunity to continue to pursue our mission of enabling outlier founders to build the companies of the future 🚀
Excited for the decade ahead …
Peak XV Partners has gathered a massive $1.3 bn in its first raise after the split from Sequoia.
The money has been raised for seed and venture in India, besides an Asia Pacific fund.
The growth fund is not a part of this raise.
