I had the privilege to share with over 1000 students from Lovely Professional University in India how startups can contribute to United Nations Sustainable Development Goals.
By 2024, India will grow from 13 to 54 unicorn companies (startups with a valuation of over $1 billion). Startups are driving innovation and shaping the way we consume, live and our entire society at a speed never seen before.
It's really important in this time period to build ventures and solutions which create profit with purpose but at the same time really scalable. We need to bring the learnings from the really scalable tech ventures into sectors like education, agriculture, healthcare, financial services, and the environment to create long-lasting impact and scale at the same time. I will highly recommend and challenge you, if you are an entrepreneur, look at bigger and more impactful problems to solve using the marketplace, fin-tech or logistic-tech approach which mainstream tech ventures have done beautifully to solve our needs and problem in lifestyle and consumer tech space.
