From a Dropout to a Billion-Dollar Empire – The OYO Story At 17, Ritesh Agarwal dropped out of college with a dream to revolutionize the hospitality industry. Facing rejections, financial struggles, and skepticism, he kept pushing forward. What started as a small budget hotel concept in 2013 turned into OYO, a global hospitality giant valued at billions. Despite setbacks, legal battles, and market challenges, Ritesh never gave up. Today, OYO is one of the world’s largest hotel chains, proving that bold dreams, relentless hustle, and resilience can change industries. #Startups #Entrepreneurship #SuccessStory #OYO
