What you likely need
Aadit, you've built one of India's fastest-growing startups with $2.5B raised and a unicorn valuation — the next inflection point is the IPO, which you've publicly signalled via the confidential filing route. Your immediate priorities are shoring up governance, deepening your domestic investor base, and positioning Zepto's profitability narrative ahead of the public markets.
Are these your current priorities?
We will tune and customize your Founder Festival experience to make sure you get invited to the events that would be most valuable to you.

- tacticalStrengthen the board with independent directors who have public-company governance experience to satisfy SEBI listing requirements and build investor confidence.
- positioningInvest in a sustained consumer brand campaign that differentiates Zepto on reliability and assortment depth, not just speed, to defend against Blinkit and Swiggy Instamart as the market matures.
- hiringWith 6,500+ employees and 60% YoY headcount growth, prioritise building a structured leadership pipeline and L2/L3 management layer to avoid execution bottlenecks at scale.
