What you likely need
You're one of India's most prominent young founders, having built Zepto into a multi-billion-dollar quick-commerce unicorn with $2.1B raised — your founder credentials are exceptional. Your public technical presence (GitHub, Stack Overflow) is essentially dormant, which is a gap worth closing if you want to attract top engineering talent who vet founders' technical depth. The next inflection point for Zepto is likely an IPO or major international expansion, so positioning yourself publicly as a technical visionary will matter.
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.
- fundraisingBegin building relationships with investment banks and public-market investors now to prepare for a potential Zepto IPO, given the company's $3.6B Series F valuation and scale.
- positioningPublish at least one open-source project or technical blog post on GitHub to signal active technical leadership to engineering recruits evaluating Zepto.
- positioningWrite publicly about Zepto's real-time logistics and inventory optimization systems — the engineering challenges at your scale are world-class and will attract elite engineers.
- hiringPrioritize hiring senior engineering and product leaders with experience scaling consumer apps in the Middle East and Southeast Asia, given Zepto's presence in 19 countries.
- introsLeverage the YC alumni network more actively to source senior hires and strategic advisors with experience taking consumer companies from $1B to $10B+ revenue.
- wellbeingAs a founder who dropped out of Stanford at 18 and has been running a high-growth startup for five years, deliberately schedule recovery time and build a peer support network of other founders at similar scale.
- introsConsider making a small number of angel investments in Indian deep-tech or consumer startups to build a network that could benefit Zepto's supply chain and technology partnerships.
