Why Concordia Ventures?
Concordia is the Latin word for harmony, literally “with (one) heart”. It was the name of the Roman goddess of agreement, understanding, and harmony.
A British mountaineer, John Frederick Hardy, gave the name Concordia to the convergence of several glaciers in the Bernese Alps in the Swiss canton of Valais., the name Place de la Concorde of Nature. The name Concordia was then given to other places where two or more glaciers meet or large glaciated areas, such as Concordia in the Karakoram of Pakistan and Concordia Station in Antarctica.

Testimonials
People have a lot of great things to say about us. Here are just a few samples. Let’s add you to the list…
Naeem consulted on a number of business development projects during my tenure at Numetrics. He has an entrepreneurial mindset in which anything is possible and the creativity to quickly come up with solutions to all challenges. Best of all, Naeem’s capable strategic thinking and years of experience are complemented by the ability to “get things done” even when much of the team executing is half way around the world. He keeps the ball moving forward.
I attended Naeem’s presentation on “Essential Homework Each Entrepreneur Must Do,” hosted by the TiE Institute yesterday. Presenting to a large crowd, in just three hours, Naeems distilled his decades of knowledge AND wisdom in delivering material that he presents during a semester at Haas. He had a tough audience, yet despite their persistent questions and curve balls, he was able to stay on track and complete his planned presentation. A remarkable feat! Thank you, Naeem
We consulted with Naeem in his capacity as a Startup Advisor. The Deep Dive session with him was very enlightening and we got a whole new business perspective along with concrete action items on the ideas that we were pursuing at that time. I would highly recommend Naeem’s Deep Dive sessions, especially to other Techie Entrepreneurs who do not have an MBA or a prior business background.
