Amir Kabir

Amir Kabir founded Overlook Ventures after investing in risk-focused technology and working across engineering and venture capital.

Proudest Mentor Moment

"Across my broader mentorship, the through-line is similar: helping founders see around corners, accelerate early proof points, and translate complex technology into a wedge the enterprise understands. My proudest moments come when that combination of clarity, positioning, and access unlocks momentum they wouldn’t have achieved as quickly on their own."
