# Linkedin Post October 2026

In early October 2026 I participated in a FOCOS Club case competition tackling a founder dilemma around equity and partner conflicts.

Pranjal Jain took on a huge part of the heavy lifting.

And somehow, we won. 🏆

Grateful to the team Prateek Kabra Ankush Daga ACCA Soumya Khandelwal, and FOCOS Club for this one.

And to Jayant Mundhra, Yash Goyal, Apoorv Singhal, Roshan M Mathew and Pulin Goyal for judging us.

Solution. Presentation flow. Done.

Key decisions were to trust teammates with separate pieces of work when time is tight and to focus on delivering a clear solution and presentation flow rather than perfect polish.
