Late-Night Discussion with Ankita Vashistha, Founder and Chief Executive, Arise Ventures
In the dynamic world of venture capitalism, Alokananda Chakraborty stands out as a beacon of balance. As the leader of Arise Ventures, she uses Apple ecosystem devices for her work, travel, and creative pursuits.
Alokananda's job is a mission to build a more inclusive and imaginative world through entrepreneurship. Her weekdays are filled with back-to-back meetings, investment reviews, and strategic sessions. Yet, she values smart devices not just for their function, but for their insight and flow.
When it comes to travel, Alokananda has visited some of the world's most vibrant cities, including London, Tokyo, and New York. However, she cherishes the chance to live the susegad (content and unhurried) life at a farm during weekends.
Weekends are also a digital detox for Alokananda. She spends her time reading or listening to podcasts during flights, and enjoys activities like cycling, football, swimming, and spending time outdoors with her son and family. Sundays are spent at the farm, where gardening, animal interaction, and enjoying nature are common.
Arise Ventures works with founders around the world, building transformative businesses across consumer, enterprise, healthcare, and climate sectors. Alokananda is also passionate about helping scale businesses with purpose.
In her quest for ethical and beautiful skincare products, Alokananda discovers new Indian brands. She finds Whoop 5.0 to be her daily companion for health insights.
Alokananda is also a global speaker, connecting with other thought leaders at conferences. She is the founder of StrongHer, a dedicated platform and community for women entrepreneurs. However, the search results do not provide specific information about the founder of StrongHer.
Despite her busy schedule, Alokananda values her time at the farm, indulging in Fortnum & Mason's jams and teas. It's a reminder of the contented, unhurried life that she cherishes amidst her fast-paced career.
