Mahesh Murthy

Mahesh is an accomplished creative marketer and investor. He helped design and launch Amazon.com globally when Jeff Bezos was his client, Yahoo when he worked with Jerry Yang and David Filo, and Nike’s first web avatar – and somewhat unconnectedly, he’s put a few satellites into space. He’s won plaudits across creative and investing: a “Best Young Director” at Cannes for his ads for MTV as well as a couple of “VC of the Year” awards for his investing returns with startups. Mahesh believes in being paid for performance and has pioneered revenue-share agreements with clients at the marketing firm he runs, Pinstorm.
