Ex Co-founder, BharatPe · Founder, Third Unicorn
New Delhi, India
Ashneer Grover is one of India's best-known entrepreneurs and startup voices — the co-founder and former Managing Director of BharatPe, the fintech he helped build into one of India's largest merchant payment networks.
He first reached national fame as a "Shark" on the debut season of Shark Tank India and is the author of the bestselling book Doglapan. He has since founded Third Unicorn, a venture-building platform behind consumer apps including the fantasy-sports app CrickPe and the healthcare-lending platform ZeroPe. He is an alumnus of IIT Delhi and IIM Ahmedabad.
At the Saskatchewan AI & Tech Summit 2027, Ashneer brings a candid, founder-first perspective — on building and scaling startups, fintech, and what it really takes to go from idea to impact.
