Welcome to our 6th (!!!) podcast episode on From Code to Culture 🤯Whew, it’s been a ride 🚗 Before we take a little break for holiday season, join us in welcoming our final guest on FCTC for 2024 - Prashanth Prakash!In this episode, Prashanth details India’s entrepreneurial ecosystem, and how the startup world has changed since the time he started his entrepreneurial journey in Erasmic; a Bengaluru based, seed-stage VC fund. Nurturing the city’s startup landscape is no easy job - you face setbacks you’d never see coming, and some entrepreneurs give you a REAL tough time. However, more often than not, you have success stories that revitalise and revamp the market; Flipkart being an iconic, risky bet that Prashanth took in 2008, which today is valued at $38 -$40 billion. How can India have as prominent a position as China on the global supply chain? What is the ultimate application of AI in today’s world? How can India, more specifically Bengaluru think of new, innovative, tech-centric ways through which to better the lives of citizens? This episode offers a deep dive. Tune in to hear Prashanth’s thoughts on not just funding, but also his newfound hobby; Biohacking (or as he calls it: longevity research), fitness, and a fond recollection of his childhood memories spent at familiar haunts like Koshy’s and MG Road in Bengaluru. Check us out on our socials: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fromcodetoculture Twitter: https://x.com/codetoculture LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/unboxingblr
