Aneel’s global network is also super helpful when expanding to international markets as well as building strong local partnerships. Soma Cap is one of the most valuable seed investors for us.”

Aneel is exactly what you want as an investor. Supportive, willing to help on a moment's notice, and extremely well-connected. On the investment side, I've seen him make a number of bold moves and he's often right. I don't know how he does it, but by the time of I come across a hot or rapidly growing company he's already an investor. Aneel is clearly one of the best at sniffing out great early stage companies - Video from Fireside Chat with Kyle here (pw: soma_fellows2022)
