Beautifully summed up. I’ve never seen such correction of the theory in the book with examples. Please post more often. 🙏

I appreciate the Make in India spirit, I really do, you can't just slap an Indian sticker on cloned crap and expect it to become the "next big thing". That's not how groundbreaking innovation works.

True that the next Google won't come from just blind patriotism. But never underestimate the power of solving for Indian use cases and constraints to create a leapfrog product.

Agree 100%. Too many Indian startups are just blatantly copying proven models instead of charting their own path based on original insights. That's a recipe for stunted growth.

Yes! Definitely a good thing! Loved your thoughts about it. And definitely do not go for patriotism unless you're the next something successful! "Everthing Happens Once Only Be The One And Make It Shine. "

Awesome post man

Amazing post!🙌

real next-level products will come from Indian founders deeply attuned to our cultural/regional nuances that global giants miss. Not from blatant plagiarism

Exactly. India's obsession with making desi knockoffs of existing products is just setting us up for failure. Koo, Takatak etc are dead on arrival against the global giants

That quote is so true. Just copying what's already been done doesn't make you a real innovator or visionary. You have to find an original insight and have a unique angle.

How does the passage address the balance between patriotism and global collaboration?
