The ecosystem is not mature enough hence would like to contribute and help build it. Currently I feel there is lack of mentoring happening to startups. Hence would like to help start ups mentor and with the network and market access help them to scale their business faster. Besides the capital the start ups need sincere marketing assessment advice which can help them define the addressable market with clarity but such clarity cannot be purchased or assumed – it requires asking the right questions by group of investors.
