Freshworks IPO and Co-Innovation

Chandrayaan was our Moonshot that failed, so what?
The first world was unhappy when India became a nuclear power. Feed the starving and clothe the naked we were told. The same voices can be heard again when we speak of our space mission.

Book Review: Zero To One
Thiel has strong opinions on everything – even how you should dress (hint: don’t wear suits ever!). He is a contrarian and is unafraid of offending you by challenging your world view.The book certainly inspired me to abandon incremental thinking. This book should be read by everyone who wants to be an entrepreneur. You cannot think short term. Thiel may know a thing or two about success. The PayPal core team members went on to start Yammer, LinkedIn, YouTube and Yelp. In that sense the book will become a handbook that entrepreneurs will read in order to really ask whether their idea really is going to be a “Zero to One” idea just like this book.
