Growth | AI | IIT KGP’25 | CFA L1

About

I am Adesh Dhalwar, an IIT Kharagpur graduate with professional experience spanning finance, product management, and strategic planning. I have successfully cleared CFA Level 1, equipping me with a strong foundation in investment analysis and financial decision-making. My sectoral interests include investment management, artificial intelligence, venture capital, and early-stage startups. I am particularly drawn to roles that lie at the intersection of technology and business, where data-driven insights and strategic execution drive meaningful outcomes. Outside of work, I have a deep appreciation for dance and travel, which contribute to my creative perspective and adaptability. I am keen to engage in opportunities that challenge me intellectually and allow me to contribute meaningfully to high-impact initiatives. Feel free to reach at : adeshdhalwar06@gmail.com
