The Indian startup ecosystem isn’t struggling just because of a lack of funding... Yes, that’s a factor, but it’s not the whole cake. We also aren’t short of tech talent. What we truly lack is: - Access to the right mentors - Access to the right kind of people for building strong teams - Access to the right timing - Access to the right city (big cities like Bangalore, Mumbai, and Delhi definitely have privileges) - Access to the right infrastructure The government wants us to compete with China... Yes, we should aim high and push ourselves.. And please remember this, family background matters too. Doing a job is not a shameful thing. If your family needs your financial support, go for it. Don’t fall into the illusion that everyone has to build a startup or be on the “founder” path. This is a new RAT RACE (sad but reality) Indian investors are profit driven.. They mentioned their portfolio (We Invest on the Idea stage but They didn't even talk to you without MVP and POC..)

This is major!!!! This shows the security we lack in the indian markets, possibly a good cybersecurity startup can arise from this! We dont need alot but better cybersecurity, so from my perspective it's a chance to build something unimaginable!

Indian companies have a small opportunity to increase their exports. The way the USA is behaving right now, other countries are focusing a bit on diversified imports and exports. I think we should take advantage of this.
