In the past, he had also been involved with companies such as Actifio, Databricks, Digital Ocean, Forward Networks, Mesosphere and Samsara. Before venturing into early-stage investing, Sudip was an entrepreneur and an engineer. He started his first company when he was at Georgia Tech, and his second while in business school.

This experience of founding enterprise technology-oriented businesses led Sudip to the venture side and he has been investing in enterprise and open source software companies since that time.
