Hyper growth without trained staff is useless @Swiggy @SwiggyCares thanks for delivering roti sabji instead of pizza on the top of it had a bitter experience with two of your support staff! Untrained delivery boys and unemphatic support staff!!! Great going

"The best time to invest in the startup ecosystem was yesterday the next best time is now"
My article in today’s ET: We now need to propel India to the forefront of the global startup landscape in the next five years. We are on the brink of a transformative era, on which India must capitalize. Vast opportunities exist in areas such as AI-ML, big data, the energy transition, EVs, quantum computing, genomics, 3D printing, robotics, drones, and space amongst many others. Unlocking the full potential of these advancements demands several measures. These are enunciated in the article.

One fast-approaching market challenge is that the end investor can directly trade the underlying asset on the stock exchange, and top it up with the unlimited power of robo advisory, AI capabilities, and GenZ's swift adoption and comfort with technology.

To adapt to this evolving landscape, the Mutual Fund distribution community must consider embracing newer products like Alternative Investment Funds (AIFs).

Since 2016, I have been using an example of a startup that I find simple and unique in my sessions. It's called Happy Hens! Instead of confining the hens, they are allowed to roam freely, resulting in higher-quality eggs, thus Happy Hens.

Similar challenges apply to building a startup. Despite the high risk, the process equips you with diverse skills, helps you expand your network, and, even in the worst-case scenario, leaves you better prepared for real-world challenges.

Considering these factors, is engaging in a startup or investing in one genuinely as risky as it may seem?

Great event by @Razorpay last night. I wish Jaipur had more such startup mixers. Met some old friends and made couple of new ones. There was one guy who I tried to talk to couple of times but couldn’t catch his name. He was telling someone about how he sold his company and chilling now. I need to talk to you mate - hope this reaches you.

Replying to @AxisBankSupport
@AxisBankSupport @RBI Pathetic service from #AxisBank which is not releasing my parents property papers after 2 months of submission of Succession Certificate. This is a direct violation of courts order. You leave me no option but to seek legal help again. #RBI
