Happy Hollidays from OSS Capiฯal to all! โจ ๐

Greatly saddened today to learn about the passing of my friend Naren Gupta, co-founder of Nexus Venture Partners and former Chairman of Red Hat. Naren was a very kind, wise, intelligent and humble man. He helped so many founders build great COSS startups, even my own. RIP Naren. ๐๐ผ
