Open letter to Indians in America. -- Dear brothers and sisters from Bharat: Like I did 37 years ago, you arrived in America with no money but with a good education and cultural heritage from Bharat. You achieved outstanding success. America was good to us. For that we must remain grateful - gratitude is our Bharatiya way. Yet today, a significant number of Americans, may be not the majority but not too far from it either, believe that Indians "take away" American jobs and our success in America was unfairly earned. You may think the next election will fix this, but your choice would be between people who hate our Bharatiya civilisation and people who hate civilisation itself. That is the "hard right" vs "woke left" battle. You are mere bystanders to that conflict. Meanwhile there is one thing that is true now and will be true in the future: the respect Indians command world-wide will substantially depend on the fortunes of India herself. If India remains poor, the woke left will give us moral lectures with pity and the hard right, different moral lectures with scorn ("hellhole") and we must not confuse either with respect. Respect in today's world, along with prosperity and security, comes from one source: a nation's technological prowess. India produces sufficient brain power to achieve that prowess but alas we exported so much of that talent, particularly to America. As we develop that prowess in India, our civilisational strength will assert itself. As difficult as it is for many of you to contemplate this, please come back home. Bharat Mata needs your talent. Our vast youthful population needs the technology leadership you gained over the years to guide them towards prosperity. Let's do it with a missionary zeal. Respectfully Sridhar Vembu

@Akhila_doc Wow this is beautiful! God bless.

@AtombergT Think we should start flexing it by new hastag #Indianbrandbuilt2last

One of the finest Indian brand story is @AtombergT literally from fan to exhaust everything at our house is Atomberg. Its been 2 years works like a charm. Made in India for India! We use Indian brands but never talk about it. I am a proud owner and very excited to flex about it

@prakdadlani @narendramodi The true disruption for making India great again! wishing the best! Keep it going, and more power to you!

We crossed 20K followers and here’s what it looked like: * ₹2 Cr+ deals closed * 10 imported products Indianised * 3 steady buyers onboarded * Retweeted by Shri @narendramodi * Covered by Top Indian Media Houses 6 times * 2 Podcast live, 5 Invited * Factory Open Days to inspire kids * Build in Bharat community growing fast This is just the start of the Made in Bharat story. 🇮🇳 Thank you all for the support. We’re all in this together 🙏🏾

@kunal_gupta01 @e_motorad @narendramodi @PiyushGoyal Simply phenomenal, anything other founders can do from other sectors. Give us a shout!

@vinodchendhil More power to you!

Weekend perspective and gratitude. The fintech industry has seen incredible volatility in recent years... 🧵

Are you responsible for leading a stressed-out and overworked team? Do you want to become a better Leader and create some breathing room? 🧵👇

@ganeshk03 Haha, once my selling calms down :p (not sure when tho)

@ganeshk03 100% true from a founders perspective, at least 1 founder has to be rock solid in sales. I agree that when everything keeps falling, selling can actually save a ship. Be it with last min revenue or PMF ground feedback. I can write a dissertation on it :p

Well said

@ChessbaseIndia @rpragchess @rpragchess Do well chief, you've already made us proud. Respect sir!

@billcilluffo Thank you @billcilluffo Cilluffo it was amazing to share the stage with you and share the @Refyne_India story. Love the podcast format, looking forward to hearing and learning from other founders.

UK offers 50% tax relief & capital gains exemption for startup investments. This seems a great way to incentivize wealthy to invest in startups We maybe need similar schemes to reduce our dependency on foreign VCs & better use our local wealth stuck in Gold, Real estate & FDs 1/3

Raising almost $1 billion for our new early-stage and growth-stage funds in this difficult environment is a testament to the faith that our founders and LPs have in us. It is also a commitment and a responsibility ... and perhaps the best commentary on the phenomenal opportunity in Fintech that lies ahead! I am humbled, thrilled, and excited all the same and look forward to working with you all on this! #fintech #opportunity #growth #India #Asia #SEA bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
