Blitzscaling is overrated in FinTech and consistent compounding is underrated. The FinTech opportunity will go on for decades, we’re not even close to saturation. We'll see secular compounding in lots of FinTech models many years down the line.

We can often get too obsessed with the idea of blitzscaling. Though exciting in the short term - it’s not sustainable. It’s a transient state of the co. Pursue long term compounding & be less fixated on the next quarter. Solve for sustainable growth.

“PMF is segment driven. For the first 2-3 years it’s good to stay focused. If you’ve found PMF in one area, make sure you dominate that space before going after new areas. If you win a category, you’ll have a high chance of successfully attacking other categories.”

With just 10% of our small businesses currently online, GST relief is a watershed for India's SMB economy.
This will allow millions of SMBs to sell online and realise their full potential, paving the way for the govt's $1 tn digital economy dream.

Thank you for the kind words 🙏🙏 We miss co-investing with you! We are huge fans of YC and think Surge and YC are complementary platforms. In fact we have had several YC founders join our family. #BetterTogether

*I’ve no conflict/interest to praise @RajanAnandan or @singh_sequoia or @_surgeahead team. I used to invest globally and as a founder now, I’m just an observer of global VC. I always admired Surge as the best competitive response to the game that YC set,and now love the evolution
