This is a textbook case study of founders with deep domain knowledge in starting with services and then productizing, eventually raising institutional capital. EZOPS Co-Founders Sarva Srinivasan and Dutt Chintalapati told us all about their journey in 2021.
Sramana Mitra: Let’s start at the very beginning of your journey. Where were you born? Where does your journey begin?
Sarva Srinivasan: I was born in India and grew up there. I did my Computer Science there, then majored in Finance. I then started working with Wipro.
First time entrepreneurs, for the most part, do not qualify for Concept Financing. If you are hitting up pre-seed VCs in search of Concept Financing, you are wasting your time.
Ganesh has executed on a textbook case study of building a vertical AI company in Healthcare with a clear human-in-the-loop strategy that VCs are salivating over. Read on, much to learn.
>>>Technology companies are being very cautious of listing this year. According to a market report, May was the slowest month for IPOs as companies struggle with macroeconomic pressures and the troubled geo-political situation. LogicMark’s recent delisting is an anecdote of the current conditions.
>>>Startups are trying to blitzscale and become Unicorns while the market around is falling apart. In the last 18 months, numerous erstwhile Unicorns have stopped growing and started failing.
Bootstrap First, Raise Money Later is a MUCH better strategy than Blitzscaling with ridiculous amounts of capital. In 1Mby1M, we prefer Bootstrapping early, then raising small amounts of capital.
I’m publishing this series on LinkedIn called Colors to explore a topic that I care deeply about: the Renaissance Mind. I am just as passionate about entrepreneurship, technology, and business, as I am about art and culture. In this series, I will typically publish a piece of art – one of my paintings – and I request you to spend a minute or two deeply meditating on it. I urge you to watch your feelings, thoughts, reactions to the piece, and write what comes to you, what thoughts it triggers, in the dialog area. Let us see what stimulation this interaction yields. For today – Riverside III
