あらすじ・解説
Saksham Mendiratta is In The Haus with Aadit Palicha, co-founder of Zepto.Zepto started as an experiment during the pandemic; (born out of personal need to get instant grocery delivery in Mumbai). Over a quick span of time, it became so relevant and formidable that it pushed Aadit to drop out of Stanford to build this into a full time venture.Raising their latest round in May 2022, for USD 200 million, it bumped Zepto’s valuation to USD 900 million. But the challenges of building a hyper-scaling venture at 19 years is an interesting one to watch from the outside.Saksham & Aadit dive into the mindset it takes to be the CEO of a venture like Zepto, every single day.They talk about:
- The meaning of entrepreneurship
- Weekends & passion
- Inflection point into entrepreneurship
- Hiring folks way more experienced than you
- Customer experience for Zepto’s application
- Founder mentality you need to have to run a supremely high paced business
- Take on competition
- Personal inspirations in life
- Consumer market in India
- Difference between India vs US markets
- Focus while building a venture
- Personal values to live by
It’s an episode that would leave you thinking and definitely in need to action immediately. It’s provocative in a calming sort of way.So sit, back and get your notes read, as you are now ready to enter, In The Haus.
