Raghav Midha

You absolutely need to hear about Raghav Midha – this dude is the real deal. He’s a YC S23 founder, but what’s cool is how he’s been grinding long before that. Started out in Toronto, got his degree from Ivey at Western – solid business background, no doubt. But what really sets him apart is how he jumped into the shit that actually moves the world: fintech, logistics, digital products.

So, he’s been around the block with some big names. First, he was at Loblaw Digital, where he played a key role in growth and product – basically figuring out how to make digital shopping and customer involvement actually work. Then he moved over to NorthOne, a Canadian neobank – so he’s got that fintech hustle down, especially in growth and product management. The guy’s all about building stuff that scales, making tech work for businesses and consumers.

But what’s really interesting is his jump into startups. He’s done some early-stage hustle with Shelfies, a growth hacker type role, just jumping into the deep end. And before all that, he was at How Many Steps Inc., working on product and engineering – so he’s got a solid technical backbone, not just biz talk.

Now, here’s the kicker: he’s the co-founder and CEO of Terminal, his latest move, and this is where he’s really crushing it. Terminal’s basically a universal API for telematics data in commercial trucking – think GPS, dash cams, safety stats, vehicle data – stuff that insurance, fleet management, and finance companies need to run smarter, safer, faster. It’s a big change because it unlocks a ton of data that’s been locked away, and makes it accessible for a bunch of different players in the logistics world. That’s some advanced innovation right there.

What this tells me about Raghav? The guy’s got serious hustle, a deep understanding of tech and business, and a passion for solving real problems. He’s not just chasing the shiny tech – he’s about building stuff that actually moves industries, makes their lives easier, safer, smarter. His process shows he’s all about taking ideas, jumping into the chaos, and turning them into something that matters. That’s what startup life is all about – no bullshit, just pure grit and vision.

Long story short, Raghav’s the kind of founder who’s been in the trenches, learned what works, and now he’s building the future of logistics data. If you ask me, he’s one to watch – someone who’s not just riding the wave but creating one.
