Nimi Katragadda

Partner

88%

BoxGroup

Check: BoxGroup currently publishes a firm-wide maximum investment of $1M. Historical sources reported smaller firm checks and third-party profiles estimate $250K–$750K for Nimi, but no primary source confirms a current personal range.

Nimi is a generalist early-stage Partner with a long-running, publicly documented focus on healthcare and life sciences, fintech, marketplaces, and software. Her current activity extends that lens into AI-native healthcare, scientific agents, enterprise AI, and the financial infrastructure surrounding AI use. She applies BoxGroup's founder-first philosophy while testing whether the operating model, retention, sequencing, and economics can support the founder's category-scale ambition.

Howard Cox

Special Limited Partner

80%

Greylock Partners

Check: No current personal or Greylock check range is attributable to Howard, and his emeritus Special Limited Partner status should not be treated as current check-writing authority. Contact Greylock's active investors for stage, allocation, ownership and process.

Howard's record reflects a long-horizon institution-builder and governance lens developed across Greylock, the NVCA, In-Q-Tel, Stryker, investment committees and public-interest institutions. It is useful for evaluating leadership, board quality, stewardship and the relationship between private innovation and enduring institutions, but it is historical/advisory—not a current personal sourcing thesis.
