In the blog he wrote: "Microsoft Ventures itself has taken a dramatic change in the last year. The fund did not materialize and the program focused only on accelerators, which is good, but only a part of the puzzle and not the solu tion was my impression." 

Speaking to TOI from Seattle, Mohan indicated that Microsoft Ventures wanted to do much more but couldn't. 

Microsoft Ventures has seven accelerators across the globe.
