Podcast
Overview
Current business environments across the world have become encouraging for entrepreneurship. But, not every startup is a success, and not every entrepreneur can sustain in the fierce competition. There are several parameters involved in long-term growth and success, however, the basic and sometimes overlooked one is the impact that a business has on society. In today’s episode, we discuss the importance of the social impact that startups need to cater to.

[10:08] – Do you think entrepreneurship is the right path for everyone?
- There is no one way for anybody to do anything. Many people find their own path.
- You can be part of an entrepreneurial journey without necessarily being the entrepreneur.
- When I joined my company, I was not the founder of that company. I was part of the founding executive team and ultimately got to invest in it and became an owner of the company.
- I do think that there is definitely a mindset and a tolerance around risk. Confidence and flexibility are some unique traits that don’t necessarily fit everyone.
