Amit Tiwari

Amit is a Managing Partner of Tiger Iron Capital and is based in San Francisco.
He has been in the private equity business for over 17 years, including 14 as a limited partner and investor.
Amit began his career on the dark side in 1999 when he joined Credit Suisse First Boston’s investment banking group in New York (Becky and Matt have promised not to hold that against him).
Given his well-traveled upbringing (more on that later), he initially worked with clients in Latin America.
For sentimental reasons, one of his favorite projects was helping Costa Rica successfully complete a large Eurobond financing.
In early 2000 Amit moved to San Francisco and joined Credit Suisse’s technology private equity practice, where he began forging relationships within the venture community on the west coast.
When not fanatically researching new gadgets and tech trends, Amit spends his time raising (and obsessively photographing) his two girls with his wife of over a dozen years.
When he actually had some free time (pre-kids), Amit used to lose himself in the world of photography, which he hopes to get back to someday.
Amit holds a Bachelor of Science in Management from Tulane University and an MBA from the Graduate School of Management at UC Davis.
