Excited to share that I am onto building my new venture Edition (e.d.t.): a company that aligns with my core belief that it’s time Indian teams and founders build pathbreaking products & brands for the world from India. At the heart of this is another core belief: Products (and people) win not when they do things better, but when they do things different. It was brilliant to sit with Shereen Bhan CNBC-TV18 Shruti Mishra and share a peek into my new venture and our ambitions for building a global brand with a very different narrative: One that would lead with beautiful human centric design and follow through with distinctive innovation & intuitive tech in a space that is considered ‘ordinary and boring’ but powers our lives. Especially special was to share this exclusive with a dear friend & fellow entrepreneur also beginning his new global venture in healthcare. Mayank Kumar and I became friends as part of the Governing Council at Tech Entrepreneurs Association of Mumbai (TEAM) and now we share similar journeys : the power of community! Shereen Bhan with her usual brilliance unpacks a lot of topics: - what drives us to start up again - what makes us obsessed with this opportunity and why the time is right now - how as an entrepreneur I envision the future for this company - the work this requires and a glimpse of the incredible founding team behind this - is there a different bar to prove myself given my gender and despite my experience - what creates FOMO - how we build with values and love at the heart of all we do - what is on our personal to do list. Most importantly we also discuss my journey forward with The Good Glamm Group and BabyChakra | Good Glamm Group as a Group Strategy Advisor and Group Co founder but transitioning out of an operational role. Both companies have been labours of incredible love and dedication. No words can express my gratitude to Darpan S. , Priyanka Gill & the team for being incredible partners over the last many years. Especial kudos to Darpan who as a fellow entrepreneur and friend has been incredibly supportive of my aspirations for building a venture out which will now be life’s work. Here’s to moving onto a new Edition! Pls do wish us luck. New journeys are not easy but with support and luck, hopefully Made In India, Made for the World will be our generation’s new reality. ???????? #startupindia #india #founder #venture #usa #tech #hardware Young Turks
