Upcoming Startups

These would be the companies that has a great team attacking a real large problem with a vision or roadmap to also grow profitably as a business + great culture (and not necessarily chasing the valuation game and dressing up the company for investors or for eventually dumping it to common folks in IPO). Place where problem+product+people+profit have a much higher focus.

I want to join a startup which is trying to solve an interesting and high impact problem statement. Some domains that would interest me: 1. SaaS product startup - solving a business process / problem using product eg. Collaboration and documentation tool 2. Any other domain apart from the crowded and boring ecommerce, edtech, foodtech sectors Please suggest some startup names or cool domains which have opportunities for product based solutions.

Who you think that despite the current market, will flourish because of a solid business model, execution or team! 🚀

Having worked for both early stage startups and large corporations, the work satisfaction I get by working for startups is unmatched. I’m currently identifying few of the startups to work for as an experienced software engineer. What are the metrics and parameters to look for? There are some brilliant minds here who share their awesome knowledge, your thoughts will be appreciated!

Kya dikat hai bhai, udane do paisa. Tumhare thodi hai. Good firms genuinely perform well and return money. The ecosystem is not forgiving -- you don't survive very long if you don't create any big wins. It's an extremely high stress job with very little WLB. You do make money but it comes at a cost. Layoffs are sad but at least those jobs existed in the first place? They wouldn't without VC money. India's VC scene is extremely young and it'll take time before we produce a Google. Entrepreneurs are not always right, they are not always nice either; but they definitely are courageous.

Which startup, currently valued > $100mn, has the best growth potential in next 3 yrs in your opinion? Why? No self promotion please.

Let's ignore what's wrong with startups, keep this an optimistic thread. Which startups make you excited about their future? The ones that have cracked product, GTM, model, or something else. Name the best Indian startups :)
