  • UPDATED WEEKLY

Hi, I am your host Siddhartha! I have been an entrepreneur from 2012-2017 building two products AddoDoc and Babygogo. After selling my company to SHEROES, I and my partner Nansi decided to start up again. But we felt unequipped in our skillset in 2018 to build a large company. We had known 0-1 journey from our startups but lacked the experience of building 1-10 journeys.  Hence was born the Neon Show (Earlier 100x Entrepreneur) to learn from founders and investors, the mindset to scale yourself and your company. This quest still keeps us excited even after 5 years and doing 200+ episodes.  We welcome you to our journey to understand what goes behind building a super successful company. Every episode is done with a very selfish motive, that I and Nansi should come out as a better entrepreneur and professional after absorbing the learnings.

  2. Is India Making Most of It’s GDP Growth? with Prof. Arun Kumar

    Is India Making Most of It’s GDP Growth? with Prof. Arun Kumar

    This episode with Prof. Arun Kumar is a look at the Indian economy beyond headlines and GDP numbers.  We discuss the paradox behind India’s growth story: when GDP rises, does it really reach the people? We explore how poverty in India has officially fallen from 27% to 5.3% in just over a decade, yet real wages have been shrinking, especially for rural workers. If fewer people are poor on paper, but incomes aren’t rising, what’s actually driving this improvement? We talk about how the structure of India’s economy is changing, how wealth is concentrated, and the weakening of the public sector to how the black economy distorts policy outcomes. We discuss why state finances are now becoming a silent crisis, and how India’s macroeconomic stability, while strong, hides inequalities that threaten long-term growth. The episode also explores the solutions, which India needs to fix over the next 20 years to make growth truly inclusive and meaningful for everyone. 0:00 – Trailer 1:01 – Does GDP growth translate to ground reality? 6:46 – Is India truly the 4th largest economy? 10:30 – Poverty fell 22% in 12 years, yet wages dropped. 14:06 – Does the poverty line reflect reality? 18:07 – What % of India is really poor? 21:00 – Are middle-class families going into debt for basics? 23:26 – How are rich, middle, and poor defined? 24:44 – Wealth is shifting 26:56 – How stable is India’s macroeconomy? 30:48 – Why India cannot open up some sectors 34:27 – Why R&D spending remains low in India 35:36 – Is the consensus on need for public sector falling? 38:18 – Black economy kills public sector 41:37 – How healthy are the Indian state economies? 44:51 – Is the tax split b/w centre and states working? 47:05 – How can India create jobs in Unorganised sectors? 53:12 – What are the solutions to fix Indian economy in next 20 years ------------- India’s talent has built the world’s tech—now it’s time to lead it. This mission goes beyond startups. It’s about shifting the center of gravity in global tech to include the brilliance rising from India. What is Neon Fund?

    The Story of Silicon Valley Legend & Google Founding Stakeholder with Asha Jadeja Motwani

    “When I saw Google change the destiny of the planet, I could not imagine doing anything else but working with brilliant entrepreneurs.” -Asha Jadeja Motwani and her husband, Rajeev Motwani, the Silicon Valley legend of technical startups, are together the founding stakeholders of Google. In the late 1990s, they came to the United States as most Indians, as students. From being part of Google’s early days to their journey as investors and now, extending that into an active participation in American politics. She speaks about Rajeev’s pivotal role in mentoring Larry Page and Sergey Brin, co-authoring the PageRank paper, and helping shape Google’s DNA.  Today, through the Motwani Jadeja Foundation, Asha continues to build on that legacy; funding entrepreneurs, supporting Indian voices in global think tanks, and opening doors at Davos and Washington. Asha also reflects on how the Indian diaspora can play a far greater role in shaping the future of India-US partnership and why entrepreneurs are critical to the future of this relationship.

    How to Build a Startup in 2025? With 1/5th Cost, 1/5th Team | Shikhil Sharma, Astra Security

    Cybercrime is predicted to drain the world of $10.5 trillion annually by 2025, making it one of the greatest threats to modern business. Shikhil Sharma, co-founder & CEO of Astra Security, is building one of today’s most trusted pentesting platforms. Just last year, Astra uncovered over 2 million vulnerabilities across customer systems, preventing more than $69 million in potential losses Shikhil shares why Astra was built as a product- and marketing-first company, how storytelling helped the brand connect with people by clearly showing its purpose and expertise and how founder–investor relationships are built on conviction and trust.  He breaks down why pricing transparency is no longer optional for B2B companies and how trust is emerging as the true currency of go-to-market. We discuss what it takes to build a SaaS company in today’s AI-first world, from raising leaner rounds and running with smaller teams to creating products that customers love from day zero.  Beyond the playbooks, this is a conversation about building durable companies and the mindset that drives Shikhil as a founder: success isn’t bought, it’s rented, and the rent is due every day. 0:00 — Trailer 0:56 — Early college days that led to a startup 5:00 — AI could cut startup costs and team size by 80% 8:43 — Why seed rounds should be under $500K 11:45 — Marketing can beat sales in early-stage SaaS 16:07 — Is Google search under threat from consumer AI? 20:23 — Why B2B startups must display pricing transparently 25:41 — What VCs lend founders beyond capital? 28:36 — How 42 CIOs backed Atomicwork 30:58 — Replace GTM with COT- currency of trust 33:34 — Why 20-year SaaS playbooks no longer works 35:37 — How AI is changing cybersecurity 41:38 — How the founders first met in college 46:33 — Are “hard startups” actually easier to build? 51:50 — Neon X Astra Security ------------- India’s talent has built the world’s tech—now it’s time to lead it.

  5. Stories from India’s heartland that tell a different story than GDP headlines | Subroto Bagchi, Mindtree

    SEP 25

    Stories from India’s heartland that tell a different story than GDP headlines | Subroto Bagchi, Mindtree

    “Push something a millimetre in the private sector, you make an inch of progress. In the public sector, it’s a mile of progress.” Subroto Bagchi started his career as a clerk in the Odisha government in 1976, leaving postgraduate studies. Today, eight years after serving at the rank of cabinet minister in the same government, he has certainly changed countless lives, not nameless faces. In this conversation, he passionately shares stories of young men and women from Odisha who overcame generational challenges by getting skilled, gaining not just jobs but identity. While this conversation could have focused on his remarkable journey building Mindtree in 1999 with 9 Co-founders and taking it to IPO, it goes beyond entrepreneurship. It’s about stories from hinterland India, seen through the eyes of a founder who spent 16 years in the private sector before serving his home state. Subroto also reflects on India’s big picture: instead of just chasing the trillion-dollar goal, we should also focus on improving quality of life for the 94% in the unorganized sector.  This episode shares stories beyond metros, it highlights how building scalable solutions in business can translate into meaningful social impact.  0:00  – Trailer 1:47 – 10-6-4-2 Method to evaluate ITIs 6:15 – Muni Tigga: Locomotive Pilot story 9:12 – Basanti Pradhan: Story of 50% of garment workers in Tiruppur from Orissa 15:49 – Sumati Nayak: How skills give us identity 19:16 – Joy of building Mindtree vs. joy of working in govt 20:35 – The difficult stories of people moving away for Jobs 23:32 – How Mr.Subroto accepted the Job? 31:13 – The story behind “The Day the Chariot Moved” 33:26 – How 8 years in hinterland India changed Mr. Subroto 37:14 – India vs. Bharat 42:04 – India’s priorities beyond the $5 trillion economy 43:43 – Quality of life for a gig worker in India vs. a developed country 45:29 – Reality of 94% India that is unorganised 47:50 – What India gives its vocationally trained students? 49:09 – Stereotypes about govt, that maybe not true anymore 52:03 – The highly efficient & incorrupt politicians 54:00 – Where the government has succeeded in delivery? ------------- India’s talent has built the world’s tech—now it’s time to lead it.

    How Startups Can Survive GPT7 & Win Against Model Providers | Ashu Garg,Foundation Capital | Investor Databricks,Turing,Cohesity

    Ashu Garg has backed companies like Databricks, Turing, Cohesity, Jasper, and Eightfold.ai as General Partner at Foundation Capital. Over the years, he’s seen multiple waves of innovation but in his words, nothing in the last 45 years comes close to the transformation AI is bringing right now. Ashu discusses how the next wave of AI products will be driven by combining reasoning with reinforcement learning, and cautions every startup building on top of foundation models: that their vendors will also be their competitors. He also talks about how agents are moving from simple copilots to autonomous workers, how the internet itself will have to be reinvented for an agentic world, and what happens when your agent can not only draft emails but also buy plane tickets or make payments on your behalf. We also get into the realities of building AI companies today: why your competitor isn’t GPT-5 but GPT-7, where startups can actually outcompete big tech, whether geography still matters, and how relationships and access still shape outcomes in an age that feels completely digital. This is one of the most insightful conversations you’ll hear on what it takes to build durable AI companies in this era and where the next generation of billion-dollar startups will come from. 0:00- Trailer 0:42 – Foundation models as biggest competitor of AI startups 4:19 – Agents are visible; reasoning is underneath 6:20 – The leap of AI from autonomous to automation 9:27 – Why the internet must be reinvented for AI 10:49 – What if agents act (and do payments) on your behalf?  13:06 – Is Ashu using agents for himself? 13:54 – No tech shift in 45 years compares to today 15:38 – Who is accountable for what your agent does? 17:57 – Who has advantage: first-time or repeat founders? 19:27 – Does geography matter for founders anymore? 21:19 – Whose AI will become the user’s default? 25:44 – Where do startups have an edge in AI? 28:25 – How can startups outdo their model providers 31:21 – Does distribution still matter in the Agentic era? 33:29 – Why experience and access will always matter 35:36 – Startups today must compete with GPT-7, not GPT-5 37:09 – Why Dollars on talent poaching in AI makes sense 42:20 – Are only 1,000 people at AI’s cutting edge? 43:32 – What does Ashu garg look for in a founder? 45:15 – How to build more billion-dollar companies? ------------- India’s talent has built the world’s tech—now it’s time to lead it.

    A full founder’s arc: starting small, building global SaaS companies from Hyderabad, taking one to IPO, another to a billion-dollar exit, and then choosing to begin again (and again). Kiran Darisi began at Zoho, founding team member of Freshworks at 25, and stayed twelve years till the company went public. Today he is building Atomicwork, reinventing service management in the AI era.  Sreedhar Peddineni started with Host Analytics back when SaaS was still called application service provider, went on to create the customer success category with Gainsight, and is now on his third venture with GTM Buddy. In this episode, we talk about what it takes to build companies that last for decades. We discuss how startups can find the “Goldilocks zone”,why smaller teams are creating more value than ever, and the mistakes founders often make when moving from SMB to enterprise. Both founders share how AI is reshaping every layer of SaaS, why it’s both eating the pie and expanding it and what’s left for entrepreneurs when the biggest AI companies are chasing every vertical. This conversation looks back at some of India’s iconic SaaS companies, shares lessons from two decades of building, and looks ahead to the future of SaaS from India. 0:00 — Atomicwork x GTM Buddy 1:17 — Why They Chose to Be Founders Again 8:27 — How to generate pipeline predictability at a startup? 16:46 — Becoming Freshworks’ Co-Founder at 25 19:43 — How Atomicwork Co-Founders Connected & Chose Their Problem 23:25 — Building Companies That Last for Decades 27:18 — Why Smaller, High-Quality Teams Win 30:21 — 1st vs 2nd Founders: What They Get Wrong 31:56 — Scaling: SMB → Mid-Market → Enterprise 33:36 — Category Creation at Gainsight 40:03 — Disrupting vs Expanding Large Categories 44:08 — How to Choose the Right Market 49:08 — Why Atomicwork Chose This Category 53:11 — The 'Goldilocks Zone' for a Startup Category 57:11 — Can Salesforce Be Replaced? 58:26 — Neon Fund x Atomicwork 1:01:27 — Neon Fund x GTM Buddy 1:03:44 — If Big AI Goes Everywhere, What’s Left for B2B SaaS? 1:07:36 — What to Build in the AI Era? 1:10:35 — Is AI Expanding the Pie While Eating It? 1:17:03 — How Useful Are Custom GPTs for Companies? 1:20:34 — Workflows vs AI Workforce ------------- India’s talent has built the world’s tech—now it’s time to lead it.

About

Hi, I am your host Siddhartha! I have been an entrepreneur from 2012-2017 building two products AddoDoc and Babygogo. After selling my company to SHEROES, I and my partner Nansi decided to start up again. But we felt unequipped in our skillset in 2018 to build a large company. We had known 0-1 journey from our startups but lacked the experience of building 1-10 journeys.  Hence was born the Neon Show (Earlier 100x Entrepreneur) to learn from founders and investors, the mindset to scale yourself and your company. This quest still keeps us excited even after 5 years and doing 200+ episodes.  We welcome you to our journey to understand what goes behind building a super successful company. Every episode is done with a very selfish motive, that I and Nansi should come out as a better entrepreneur and professional after absorbing the learnings.
