    🚨Life update: Launching Industrial 47 — a fund to back the forerunners of India’s Industrial Revolution. Over the last decade of building companies, backing founders, and serving in the military, I’ve sensed something profound shift. Quietly, slowly, almost imperceptibly a

    The only way to describe the morning of 15th Jan - 🤯 India’s first private satellite constellation just went up. Not a test, not a demonstrator, not a pilot. An. Actual. Constellation. While the last 5 years of Indian New Space have been about demonstrating capability and

    The more founders I talk to, the more I'm convinced that the true unsung heroes of the Indian startup ecosystem are college interns.

    Enough talk. Time to do. 🚨Launching the G10 Fellowship. Step 1 in our plan to build an Industrial India. Deets: 1) 4 months (May-August), sitting in the cockpit of India's best deeptech start ups. 2) $5K Fellowship Stipend. 3) An insatiable urge to build and the courage

    It’s officially confirmed. We’re a nation of whiners. Politicians pointing at founders, founders at VCs, VCs at the ecosystem and so on. STFU. Nobody cares. The only reason there is glory in conquest is because it’s hard, it’s painful and it extracts a price; a toll you must

    @1kunalbahl / @TitanCapitalVC have seen a lot of your posts praising BITSian founders and their grit, hustle etc. A current BITSian interning at @snapdeal is being harassed, troubled and put through absolute misery. Her boss resigned & she was given all his responsibilities

    Hi Folks, @samiksha0396 and I are looking for a new member to join the team at @AntlerIndia. You will talk to the largest number of early stage founders (we've heard from 7,000+ so far) just starting out in India. Why should you not apply for this position: 🧵

    The discussion around India’s R&D spending often begins with the stark realization that we invest only 0.7% of our GDP in R&D. This is considered abysmal compared a South Korea, which allocates 4% of its GDP to R&D. We bemoan our political will and the government’s seriousness
