Build in India, for the World
Zoho Founder Sridhar Vembu encourages Indian start-ups to build deep, world-class products in India, focusing on industrial strength, rural talent, and skills over degrees, rather than just chasing Western "exit" models or financialism. He advocates for building sustainable, employment-creating enterprises rooted in Indian values, emphasizing long-term vision, self-belief, and local development.
