Frakman said:
“I saw over and over again how incredible the (Indian) market is, and I’ve always been completely captivated by how quickly the markets change here. It’s insanely addictive to build and work in India because you actually see the results and progress that’s happening.”
The investor stressed that while EMVC was very much focused on India, their strategy was that of a global- and US-based fund.
In her early time, she was the Director of the US-India Business Council, advising Fortune 500 companies on market strategy in India.
