# Entrepreneurship Against Convention

On 2022-08-23, I suggested that a startup could be defined as a company whose founders are actively involved. I said Flipkart and Amazon no longer look like startups, but did not specify what active involvement means or why those companies no longer fit the label.

I congratulated someone I called “brother,” saying he deserved the recognition and more. The message quoted @Nithin0dha describing @zerodha as an example of building a successful business outside conventional norms, without conventional business or education credentials, VC/PE, advertising spending, or spamming customers. That description was @Nithin0dha’s, not a claim I made about my own business. I did not identify the person I congratulated or the achievement.
