What problems would Indian and Global startups be solving in the next decade, or they would be just throwing random yearly new buzz words and as usual VCs would be having orgasms on these buzz words.
I mean real problems.
1% — real problems Rest — VC buzzword circlejerk
What real problems would be there?
1% like cred?!
Climate change is the biggest problem the human race will ever encounter and we're already seeing the impact.
Frauds in the form of junk carbon offsets and greenwashing brands already paint a bad picture on the other hand so it will be a rocky road nevertheless.
But then again, maybe it just depends on what the flavor of the season is..be it EdTech ,web3, BNPL, B2B SaaS, GenAI - and even worse is knowing how startups just mushroom out of nowhere based on those investment themes or make pivots otherwise. Using words like "thesis", "carry", "due diligence" can even make a monkey look smart.
Beggars belief as to whether it is simply a circle jerk at the end of the day or perhaps there is room for some for solving problems.
As kamath says first trillioniar on the planet will be someone who is solving for climate change
I agree, being from a chemical engineering background and involved in the green hydrogen scenario, most of the companies currently are signing MOUs and just increasing their value. After taking the money from investors they will just puff. On the other hand, if money is not infused in the scenario there might not be a way forward or improvement. As an example, you can see the drop in prices of solar energy over the past decade. What i believe and my point being, if you infuse 100rs in new technology only 5-10rs goes in real work rest is eaten by big mouth or belly people but those 5-10rs is required and it gives people like us hope.
There are real problems like waste management and such problems will only grow. But the companies solving it don’t get the attention or money. So just follow the buzz for money
The money just accelerates the process ofcourse I agree money is important to start if founders have guts and solutions has impact it will get noticed irrespective of the funding
Energy and battery cost are going down.
I potentially see all generators getting disrupted in a decade. It will be a low status to put noisy generators.
Water crisis in cities.
Small farmer incomes are going down. Pooling of land and doing some form of vertical farming. ( corporate farming)
Focus on sport as career. The niche the sport the better chances of lime light.
Are you looking for startup ideas?
Nah bro, never thought of starting up. Just thinking what the future would look like. Got fed up of sci fi movies.
Do you think that most of the edtechs for College students and professionals just dump a ton of web developers, who have also crammed up DSA.

I might sound stupid here but please hear me out. The market is crowded with so many startups in every domain. Older startups are much more stable, on track to become profitable or are already profitable with a huge market share. Not to...
