In early January 2023 I posted a series of LinkedIn updates that combined a mission statement, a hiring drive, a recap of 2022 achievements, a local request for gaming chairs, a motivational quote, a critique of the SharkTank narrative, and an aspirational vision for future tech founders.
Mission: create an excellent founder‑support ecosystem.
Hiring drive link: https://lnkd.in/g8aXyyrZ.
2022 recap link: https://lnkd.in/gP5C7dXM.
Gaming chair request: “Need to get a few of them in #Bangalore urgently.”
SharkTank criticism: the show normalises founder‑to‑investor talks only when money is present, undermining respect for founder risk.
Leadership vision: aim to produce a “Larry/Sergey, not just Sundar Pichai” and a “Bill Gates, not a just Satya Nadella.”
