Chapters

Hi. Hi. Are you an entrepreneur? Oh yes, I am.
Okay, great. Tell me about your company. Give me a quick pitch.
We are building Flash.co. It's world's first universal shopping identity made for power shoppers, personal mail like Gmail or Yahoo. And why would you do that? One, I save you from spam. Two, you get to track all your orders in one place. Three, you get rewarded for the shopping you already do. It's live in India. We have more than half a million users there. In US, we are dropping it on July 24th. What made you decide to create this company? Oh well, uh, I worked with Flipkart for about 9 years. Flipkart is like the Amazon of India, so had a great seat in a rocket ship seeing how e-commerce transforms lives.
Nice. And how do you like it here at the Draper Summit?
Amazing. I got to meet a lot of interesting people, a lot of investors, corporates. Got a good sense of the future, if you may say, more than anything else.
Nice. Thank you.
