A Memorable Conversation with BVR Mohan Reddy Garu I recently had the incredible opportunity to sit down with Dr. BVR Mohan Reddy, Founder Chairman of Cyient at #GlobalAiSummit 2024, a $14B global leader, and a true visionary in the Indian entrepreneurial landscape. His perspectives on entrepreneurship, and the Indian startup ecosystem were amazing and immensely valuable for us at Redstring. During our discussion, He shared his take on RedString's mission—solving the critical challenge of connecting startups with talent more efficiently. He highlighted how addressing this problem could reshape the Indian startup landscape by connecting innovative ideas and skilled talent, leading to accelerated growth. Some key insights he shared that left a lasting impression: 💡 Think Bigger, Solve Bigger: Entrepreneurs should aim to solve big, meaningful problems. Dr. Reddy encouraged us to continue pushing boundaries and refining RedString’s solution to make a substantial impact on the ecosystem. 📈 Indian Startup Boom: With the Indian startup ecosystem set for rapid expansion in the coming years, solving these foundational challenges is more important. 🔄 Upskilling and Competing with Yourself: The importance of constant self-improvement was another major takeaway. He emphasized that as entrepreneurs, we must continuously upskill and evolve, competing with ourselves to stay ahead of the curve. Inspired by these insights, we’ve been working on something exciting at RedString, which will soon be unveiled. Stay tuned! Big things are coming up along with Cyient as well. 🙌 Thank you BVR Mohan Reddy Sir for your extended support to us 🙏 #Entrepreneurship #Startups #Innovation #RedString #IndiaStartups #Leadership #GrowthMindset #ProblemSolving #ExcitingTimesAhead

🚨🚨🚨 YAHA SE AALU DAALUNGA, VAHA SE SONA NIKLEGA 🚨🚨🚨 ....... Ya, so last week i was on call with Shri Om Trivedi and we came across the topic "STRATEGIC INVESTORS". We have also heard Peyush Bansal advising some of the startup founders to look for strategic investors in Shark Tank India 🦈. ⚡ What is meant by STRATEGIC INVESTORS and how do they function? - Sometimes larger companies look to expand their footprint into adjacent domains inorganically. They ACQUIRE a MINORITY or MAJORITY stake in startups who are building in such spaces. - The objective of these larger companies is an EXPANDED PRESENCE and HIGH DIVERSIFICATION, and these startups have the necessary expertise of such domains. Such companies that acquire a stake in a startup by investing money into it become STRATEGIC INVESTORS. - Strategic Investors don't have any target to exit the startup and generate RETURNS. They are more likely to be interested in ACQUIRING THESE STARTUPS😨 if they satisfactorily fulfill their objectives. - Startup founders opting for such investments must be aware of these possibilities and be willing to lose control in due course.🫠🫡 #entrepreneurship #fundraising #datawarehouse #dataengineer #Linkedin LinkedIn Guide to Creating #linkedInmarketing #linkedInsales #founders #developers #cdp

Startup Mahakumbh 2024 turned out to be a massive one for version 1.0 and truly resonated with the theme of ‘Bharat Innovates’. The buzz at Pragati Maidan was contagious. Attended by folks from 1000+ startups, investors, and incubators, the event underscored the vibrancy of India’s entrepreneurial spirit. We just wrapped and as I take a pause, I'm thrilled to announce that Venwiz had a great event. 🚀 Venwiz was in the B2B & Manufacturing Pavilion (if you saw us, say a Yay in the comments, and let’s connect 😊 ). Beyond the wide array of sectors represented, some aspects that stood out for me were: - The introduction of a B2B manufacturing pavilion at the Startup Mahakumbh highlighted the sector's burgeoning importance. The emphasis on CapEx procurement by Venwiz was extremely well received by the enterprise and MSME participants. - Insights from late-stage startups provided valuable lessons in addressing growth challenges within our sector. - The opportunity to co-panel with founders of other B2B startups, such as Captain Fresh and Jumbotail, was enriching, offering fresh perspectives on GTM and problem-solving. - Discussions with prospective and existing clients at the Kumbh led to actionable strategies and potential partnerships. Most inspiring was witnessing the government's commitment to the startup ecosystem, firmly validated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's presence and advocacy for entrepreneurship. Especially exhorting the ‘Futurepreneurs’! A big thank you to Accel, Nexus Venture Partners, Sorin Investments, NASSCOM, ASSOCHAM, and other teams that played a crucial role in conducting this event.
