Switching off from work isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity for sustainable #productivity and work life balance. When employees blur the boundaries between work and personal time, even while on leave, it often leads to burnout rather than boosting performance. Unwinding and destressing during downtime allows the brain to process information more effectively, sparks creativity and promotes #wellness. The rise of the #hybrid work model has made this balance more complex, but it also emphasizes the need for intentional boundaries. By completely unplugging, #employees can return feeling recharged and rejuvenated, ultimately enhancing their productivity. The real challenge lies in normalizing this pause without the stigma of being “less committed.”
Indian Startups Powering IT Giants Growth Amid Funding Crunch Amid a funding crunch in the startup ecosystem, tech giants are capitalizing on the moment to acquire innovative Indian startups. These smaller firms, specializing in fields like AI, semiconductor technology, data analytics, and spacetech, bring the agility and disruptive solutions that larger companies often need to stay competitive. Why is this happening? With global tech spending still in a cautious phase, especially in discretionary areas, IT firms are strategically investing in startups to fortify their capabilities and future-proof their offerings. By acquiring niche talents and breakthrough technologies, they can quickly address gaps in their portfolios and pivot toward high-value segments like design and AI without the time and resource investment needed to build these solutions in-house. This approach, dubbed “Solutions to Valuations,” highlights the significant return on investment these acquisitions can bring. For example, a relatively small investment in a startup can yield new revenue streams, as IT firms leverage these innovative solutions across their larger client bases. This synergy not only boosts revenue but can also elevate valuations, making these acquisitions a powerful growth strategy. The benefits are mutual: startups gain crucial resources and exposure to extensive markets, while tech firms enhance their offerings and competitive edge. In times of tighter funding, these partnerships are reshaping the tech landscape, fueling growth and ensuring that innovative talent continues to thrive.

While #IndiaInc is making a significant global impact, #India as a "market" presents an enormous opportunity for global #startups. My perspective is a bit different— I believe that #startups worldwide should view India not just as a market, but as a place for collaboration and innovation. With impressive economic growth, high mobile penetration (both urban and rural), rising internet adoption, and a massive population of 1.4 billion, the potential is vast. The Government of India (Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade, Reserve Bank of India (RBI), National Payments Corporation Of India (NPCI)) initiatives supporting #innovation, such as #UPI (#FinTech), focus on #DPI (Digital Public Infrastructure), efforts to make #Education as a priority, further amplify these opportunities. Based on my experiences during my visit to #GlobalFintechFest, inspiration by the work of organizations like Indiaspora, Upekkha,Z5 Capital, Sequoia Capital, Athera Venture Partners (formerly Inventus India), Kanwal Rekhi (TiE), TALHospitals, FalconX Gateway, India@100 work by Prof. Krishnamurthy V Subramanian, and specifically work being done by Kestone (which helps global corporates in #GTM) I set out to write this article for Forbes Business Development Council - https://hubs.li/Q02RQryN0 - highlighting India as a market for Startups. Success requires a strategic approach. Partnering with a #GTM specialist like Kestone is essential. There are nuances in the Indian market that demand expert guidance to navigate effectively.

Very pertinent and path showing article by Srini Vadhri. In many advanced economies, the start-up mentors and investors started guiding their start-up entrepreneurs to do their #product-market fit, #price discovery and #GTM steps in India almost a decade ago. That was a future anchored mentoring at that time. In 2024, this is hygiene. Indian market forces a very different price-performance equation the start-up team, provides a stable and more economical geography for engineering and backend and presents a large market as a super bonus. Read the article / post by Srini Vadhri and share your thoughts. His experience of 25 years in the US and a decade in India speaks for itself.

The AI initiative in India aims to offer financial backing and assistance to deep tech startups, as per specialists. The government's initiative towards deep tech startups, through the recently launched India AI mission, is seen as a positive step by industry experts in fostering a favourable investment climate. This mission, aimed at accelerating research and development (R&D) in these startups, is anticipated to enhance innovation and cultivate new business models within the sector. With a budget allocation of Rs 10,372 crore over five years, the India AI Mission, approved by the Union Cabinet, dedicates nearly Rs 2,000 crore to finance deep-tech startups, specifically focusing on expediting R&D in these ventures. The move is welcomed as it addresses a significant hurdle faced by deep tech startups in India, namely, the lack of adequate financial support, which has hindered innovation. Avi Dahiya, founder and CEO of Twyn, a deep tech enterprise SaaS startup, highlights the challenges faced by such startups due to the intricate nature of their projects, prolonged development cycles, and perceived risks, leading to repeated rejections. Currently, there are approximately 3,000 deep tech startups in India, but less than 20% have managed to secure sufficient financial backing. While the allocated Rs 2,000 crore is considered a positive step in building a conducive investment environment, industry stakeholders emphasise the need for clarity in regulations and data sharing policies to further attract investors. The India AI Mission is expected to encourage new corporate social responsibility initiatives to support deep tech startup R&D through technology business incubators (TBIs) and government-supported incubators. Additionally, the mission's emphasis on accelerating R&D in deep tech AI startups is anticipated to create more opportunities and foster the development of new business models, making R&D a necessity for competitiveness across sectors. . . . #socialmediamarketing #post #reels #trading #forextrading #tradingnews #livenews #newslive #liverpoolnews #startiyapa #official #reelsviral #viralreels #news #newsong #newseason #newstyle #newsingle #sneakernews

My NelsonHall colleague Gaurav P. is quoted today in The Economic Times' article: 'Silver lining amid funding winter: IT firms acquiring Indian startups, smaller firms'... “Armed with plenty of cash, IT services companies have found a fertile hunting ground for startups in India around deep tech, AI, and Space applications to augment capabilities, to address white spaces (gaps in their portfolios) especially in high value work like design, and above all get access to skilled resources that normally takes years to build internally. “Large IT firms have now cracked the code of the startup innovation culture and are able to integrate acquired companies with the services organization, while still maintaining a hands-off approach. It is a win-win proposition for both, with startups getting access to resources, especially in times of a funding crunch, and also to an entire gamut of Fortune 1000 companies that the IT firms serve."
