Got featured in .@EconomicTimes
Glad someone covered this story.
This positive gesture by the government deserves to reach crores of Indians.
Surprised no other media picked it up.
I received an invite from the Ministry of Finance, and I thought it was spam.
I looked into the email after 15 mins
It said, "Chief Economic Advisor (CEA) of India wants to talk with you"
I still couldn't get it
There was a landline number mentioned in the email. I called up and asked if this was a conference or something I was being invited to.
They said the CEA wants to talk personally and hear the story. And could I come to Delhi.
I said yes. He also wanted all the economists in his office to be part of it.
This is the team that puts together the Economic Survey and the country's economic policies every year.
I flew to Delhi and met the CEA and his team.
I shared my journey into deep-tech, drone policies and Indian manufacturing, in the context of my previous drone startup Airdonex and my current startup @ProcurioIndia
They listened carefully to every challenge we have run into, and were genuinely interested in what founders need from policy.
We concluded with explaining what we are building at PROCURIO, that we are on a mission to set a new benchmark for how anyone can source and manufacture from India.
Middle-class borrowers use their CIBIL score to prove they can repay a loan from their future salary.
Wealthy individuals borrow against what they already own.
If someone wants a ₹10 crore loan and pledges ₹50 crore in stocks, real estate, or business equity as collateral, the bank has zero risk.
The CIBIL score is meaningless for the "Wealthy"
There are certain companies I personally know are doing this in Tamil Nadu.
Impact of Atal Innovation Mission.
India is doing it
It’s just that we not covering much on the social media.
I was a drone educator in many government schools during my college days.
Chinese students are designing and testing drones at school. 🇨🇳
Imagine if this became normal in Indian schools too. 🇮🇳
The future is being built early.
