Stride Ventures, one of India's leading venture debt firms, is proud to announce the participation of Ishpreet Singh Gandhi, its founder and managing partner, in the Future Investment Initiative (FII) summit held in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Stride’s endeavour focuses on building new global synergies for Indian startups and investors.
This first-of-its-kind summit in Latin America by FII is empowering new-age global synergies. Led by Richard Attias, CEO, the institute is a premier global platform that brings together key stakeholders to discuss and shape the future of investment and innovation.

During the panel, Gandhi shared his perspectives on the dynamic landscape of regional and global trade and its impact on startups. He highlighted how leveraging regional trade agreements, optimising supply chains, and integrating advanced technologies can significantly enhance the resilience and efficiency of startups, positioning them for sustainable global growth.
"Startups possess the agility and innovation necessary to capitalise on new opportunities arising from the recalibration of global supply chains," said Gandhi. "By investing in local supply chains, we can create a more resilient and inclusive global network that supports sustainable and equitable economic development."
