CEO and Co-Founder of Workday Aneel Bhusri is the highest ranking Indian-American on the list.
11 influential Indian-American investors feature in Forbes magazine's annual list of the 100 best venture capitalists with the "Midas" touch who are making big and early bets on the leading technology companies of tomorrow and earning outsized returns for their investors.
The Forbes 2015 Midas List represents the world's 100 smartest technology investors with valuations greater than $1 billion and a total of 766 deals.
Jim Goetz of Sequoia Capital maintained the number 1 spot for the second year in a row due to WhatsApp, the mobile messaging company acquired by Facebook for $22 billion.
He was the only institutional backer in the messaging service and "struck gold", returning more than $3 billion to Sequoia in the deal, Forbes said.
Leading the Indian-Americans on the list is 49-year old Aneel Bhusri, CEO and Co-founder of Workday, a cloud-based financials and human resources software firm.
Stanford business school graduate Mr Bhusri is ranked 17th on the list and has a net worth of $1.22 billion.
"A steady top 20 Midas lister," Forbes said. Mr Bhusri is the only venture capitalist to have co-founded and taken a multi-billion dollar company public while also working as a venture capitalist.
On the 24th spot is Salil Deshpande, Managing Director of Bain Capital Ventures.
Mr Deshpande, 46, has had two big exits in 2014 with technology company Dropcam that was sold to Google and the IPO of peer-to-peer lending company LendingClub, both early-stage bets made while at his prior firm Bay Partners.
Norwest Venture Partners Senior Managing Partner Promod Haque comes in at the 26th rank.
The 66-year old's most notable deal has been cybersecurity company FireEye, which had the second-best performing IPO in the US in 2013. His investments in more than 60 companies have produced over USD 40 billion in exit values.
