Episode notes

The founder of a start-up in India says the market is not big enough for global companies to thrive. He has been working as an investor since he was 14, but finds investing boring and doesn't bring him any joy. The only way you can differentiate from other service providers are by offering better quality products or services at lower prices than everyone else.

My guest is Indian entrepreneur and venture capitalist Kunal Shah who calls on his decades of entrepreneurial experience to discuss what he’s learned about what motivates people, and how observing trends hiding in plain sight has made him a runaway success in business.

We also discuss the many cultural differences between India and the West, what he learned growing up in the family business and how he applies it today, observing reality, why he dropped out of an MBA program, strategies for decision-making, and so much more.
