DriveU

Rahm Shastry is an entrepreneur and operator with more than three decades of experience building and leading companies in Silicon Valley. An early investor in TaxiForSure, Rahm recognized that hiring a driver in India meant going through informal, neighborhood-run agencies with no training standards and no way to verify who was actually getting behind the wheel. To address this gap in the market, he went on to found DriveU. His earlier work has spanned engineering, product strategy, and business development. He has led several semiconductor technology businesses through fundraising, strategic partnerships and acquisitions, giving him experience across both the technical and commercial sides of building a company. Rahm holds a master’s degree in Computer Engineering from Stony Brook University, and also advises early-stage semiconductor companies through Silicon Catalyst.
