I have failed 7 times with my startups investing my life savings and went bankrupt before starting pepper square. pepper square is a successful digital agency focused on solving business problems with "Design Thinking"​. I am a template of failures. I guess the next version of Microsoft Power Point will have a "PPT template"​ for failure named after me.
I have successfully influenced over 250 companies from brand building to exit strategy in India and USA in my 21 years career. 76 startups have been incubated at pepper square in the last 12 years. Entrepreneurship for me is about creativity, fun, doing what i love, solving problems, building lasting relationships, being an honest advisor to people, cash flow, profitability and long-term​ view of building a self-sustaining organization. You don't need VC money to start a company. All you need is passion, patience, creativity, razor sharp focus on solving one core problem and being persistent.
