Rajeev Motwani R.I.P.

Susheel — Sat, 06 Jun 2009 17:20:33 +0000

It is with sadness that we write about Rajeev Motwani’s untimely passing. He was Plusmo’s first advisor and helped us shape our business and raise funds. He was always willing to offer great advice and was only an email or a call away.

Silicon Valley has lost one of its best minds. We offer our deepest condolences to his family.
