Before starting Drivetrain, Alok was a partner at VC firm Elevation Capital, a $670mn global VC fund.

During that period he became fascinated on how companies plan to grow asking himself “why do some companies grow faster while others get stuck?” Fundamentally, a data driven approach and planning are key to unlocking a successful growth trajectory. So, he set out to make the Google Maps for business growth, that helps create plans, tells whether we’re on track and helps course-correct when we veer off.
