What you likely need
You're navigating one of India's most high-stakes IPO windows as a 23-year-old founder, so the events most valuable to you sit at the intersection of public-markets preparation, institutional investor access, and leadership hiring. You also need candid, off-the-record time with founders who have actually rung the bell — people who can tell you what SEBI scrutiny and post-listing pressure really feel like. Rounding that out, YC network activations that unlock senior engineering and product leaders will help you build the bench Zepto needs to scale past the IPO.
