Meet our founder

Ankur Shrivastava

With a background that spans product management, delivery management, finance, and sales, I bring a well-rounded perspective to solving business problems and building value-driven solutions.

Over the years, I’ve led cross-functional teams to deliver digital products and services, managed large-scale data transformation initiatives, and worked closely with stakeholders to shape roadmaps that align technology with business goals. My career has been driven by a passion for creating impact, whether through launching customer-centric products, optimizing delivery pipelines, or navigating financial and operational challenges. This passion ultimately led me to start StratMate.

I founded StratMate to help early-stage founders owners gain clarity, direction, and momentum. By combining my corporate experience with a hands-on, startup-friendly approach, StratMate aims to empower entrepreneurs to scale sustainably and confidently.

And finally, about my hobbies - I am a part-time poet. Writing poetry gives me a creative outlet outside the business world, a space to reflect, express, and find meaning in everyday moments. It keeps me grounded and reminds me to stay curious and observant, both in life and in work.
