Regions covered
Ravi Satpal works directly with founders across Global. TGC’s coverage is structured to keep relationships local where it matters - first conversations, board cadence, in-market diligence - and pan-platform where scale makes it valuable, such as cross-border expansion, capital strategy, and embedded operating deployment from the Gateway Group operating organisation.
What this seat does at TGC
Investment & Fund Operations is one of four primary functions inside TGC Capital Partners, alongside the firm’s other investment, partnerships, operations, and fund-operations groups.
The Investment & Fund Operations team owns the legal, financial, compliance, and analytics infrastructure of the firm - diligence coordination, transaction documentation, LP reporting, portfolio analytics, governance services to portfolio companies, and the cadence that keeps investment operations institutional-grade.
How Ravi works with founders
Founders engaging with TGC typically meet Ravi as part of the first-meeting and operating-thesis phase, where the conversation moves quickly from a pitch deck to the binding execution constraints the company faces in the next two operating stages. The engagement model is structured so that capital, operating capacity, and governance support land together - under a written operating thesis with quarterly milestones - rather than as three separate transactions.
