Proto.in is representation of a community, a community of the startup landscape here in India. The initiative which is a not-for-profit one, is purely volunteer driven and each of us carry the stake and onus of making matters simpler and easier for Indian entrepreneurs to go make a difference.

But its not sheerly just the effort of volunteers alone, but those who are experienced and have a say in shaping the current direction of the country and industry who aid us with the mentorship in this mission.

Ravi Narayan, is a mentor partner. That introduction alone should suffice. Ravi has been an entrepreneur and is one currently through Mentor partners – an organization that aims at helping entrepreneurs. It is of no surprise then that Ravi and Proto.in found a commonality in the work that we do. Ravi was also one of the key management members of Nextone Communications founded in the U.S and now currently resides in Bangalore. Ravi can be best described as someone who understands the woes of both Entrepreneurs and Investors, and works hard to bridge that divide.
