Kaval Kaur is a co-founder of SUFI, an incubator and angel investment company with offices in the USA and India. Kaval and her husband Jasveer co-founded Virsa, which was later acquired by SAP for a few hundred million dollars. Virsa is part of SAP’s Governance, Risk and Compliance business unit. I caught up with Kaval at the TiECon 2007 in Silicon Valley, where she was one of the master of ceremonies for the two-day event. I wanted to find out Kaval’s journey as an entrepreneur and how it all started. In Part I of our conversation, Kaval outlines how her journey and chief financial officer began. Founded in 1999 as a services company, Kaval and Jasveer had to change the course of their business midstream after the dotcom collapse and 9/11. Pushed to refocus and reinvent Virsa became a product company focusing on a nice market: security and compliance in the ERP space. How did they do that? What were the challenges they had to face?
