This comment has made our day at the Neon team and we really appreciate your kind words very much and are thankful for supporters like you! We shall relay this message on to Siddhartha and hopefully have a part 2 coming soon 🙏🤍
A very nice podcast though this was a high level summary of what has happened overr 15 years. Firstly Shri Sharma ji is a great guest with lots of knowledge and I am hearing him for the first time. I would suggest that you make a series with him going at a slower pace explaining the business terms, people and acronyms. This was like two entrepreneurs talking about a topic they are intimately familiar with but as a viewer I had lots of questions for which I would have to Google for answers. What is iSpirit all about? What was his role in going around convincing private players like Paytm, phonepe, juspay etc to adopt UPI. Who were the RBI governor's that didn't or did want to risk using UPi. Who are the architects of the India stack and their background etc other than Mr. Nilekani.
@@sampathkumar-ej7xl Noted. Thanks so much, Sampath for writing such detailed feedback. We will work on each of them. Also sharing your message with Sharad Sir :) Stay tuned for new eps 💚
Ahh that's amazing to hear and we are so glad that you did stumble upon our podcast... We hope to keep giving you invaluable episodes that you can keep coming back to as well!
In April 2009, National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI) was formed to integrate all the payment mechanisms in India and make them uniform for all retail payments. RBI released the vision statement of UPI in 2012.
LOL nice try. First came IMPS (immediate payment service) which can be done through SMS as vast majority of Indians only had 2G phones. And it was a big flop. IIT Madras was part of it. But they learnt lessons from that. And in 2016 they launched UPI. This also would not have been possible without JIO disrupting the market through cheap data.
Proud to hear Bharath Goenka's name.. I have never seen anyone who is as ethical and honest like BG sir. I think he needs to be invited here .. I am proud to be associated with this Org
An incredible interview. His in-depth vision is what makes the difference in future country development. And it's true, what Spain sells to other countries when they have a lot of resources and professionals? It's the perfect example of a country running the downhill. Warm regards from Madrid ❤
Could you please share a link in your description of the people, business he is talking about ? Some are easy to search and find but others are not familiar for users? ForEx: Avinash is a genius and I would like to know more about Avinash and his work
Hey there we absolutely will add the links in, pls check in tomorrow and this should be updated in our description for the episode. Thank you so much for letting us know and for tuning in!
Sharad Sir has some very wonderful insights across many things....Also got to know what ISpirit is doing in bridging a gap.....much much insightful podcast
Excellent podcast. Great insight shared by Shri Sharad ji and thank Neon for the podcast. We need to develop a system to share such ideas with Schools,Engineering colleges so that young minds start thinking on these lines.
Amazing content, thanks Neon team. Loved every bit of it. The China - Taiwan analogy around unlearning from traditional businesses is really something to focus on for our future development.
I am so glad for podcast as a format taking off so well. Just thankful that we get access to such a phenomenal journey that helps us continue to build for India ❤ Thank you team Neon 🙏
I heard the best podcasts until now. We need more and more talking about how India has to become a true product nation. We need more and more going in design and research of heavy machines to 3d machines small molecules machines.
Such a wonderful episode. So much to learn from who just stepped into 30s. Tremendous knowledge and experience is my takeaway. Thanks a lot and this was my first watch from your channel. ❤
Brilliant. May be the first interview I watched twice. I would say actually we need part 0 of this interview not part 2 - introducing this wonderful guest and his overall contribution to Indian stack.❤
We all had a great time with Sharad sir and trying to reach out him because of these kind words. Will keep in mind about your suggestion when we get him back on the podcast!
Hey Akash thank you for sharing your thoughts, the reason we went with UPI in the title is because of palatable nature of the term for our audiences and we wanted to ensure that a wider audience could tune in to an extremely insightful episode... Regardless we appreciate the feedback and shall look to improve on them for future episodes 🤗🙏
@@TheNeonShoww The title unfortunately brings down the appeal for this mind-blowing interview.. makes it feel too trivial. I would ideally keep it more macro-level and idealistic/inspiring. Something like: 1) "Making India a Product Nation in 15 Years" 2) "The Man Silently Building India's Product Backbone" Or make use of Sharad Sharma's popular sobriquet "Orbit Change Catalyst"
Upi is a blessing for all merchants and customers both , I remember us not having a credit card and only a sbi maestro debit card in the family , it was difficult booking a irctc tickets let alone online shopping, imagine your buyer ready to pay you and you not able to accept payments as a merchant
There is nothing brain drain about it. India has too much competition, pedigree, and "safarish". And the world will accommodate us.Chow ! And sometimes there are no jobs for what one is Qualified for ? Where are the graduates of Indian Statistical Institute ... They are working for Hedge Fund firms in London, NY, Zurich
Which Engineering college requirements is Medical check up especially eye exam ? Definitely not in your time.. needless to say.. I know it by experience...

Hey there, we are definitely taking these title suggestions into consideration and will likely use one of them so thank you so much 🙌🏾 and really appreciate your kind thoughts on the interview as a whole as well!
There were so many abbreviations have been used for example i did understand bhajan or strong nps. Please explain or show it as a side when these words come in a video
Siddharth Sir if you are reading this - we already need Part 2 of this now !!!!!
This particular podcast is one of the best podcasts over TH-cam 🔥🔥🙌

This is probably the best podcast I accidentally landed on. Love how the guest is the focus and so much learning.
Ahh that's amazing to hear and we are so glad that you did stumble upon our podcast... We hope to keep giving you invaluable episodes that you can keep coming back to as well!
Agree with this!
@@TheNeonShoww Keeping the guest at the centre is a rare and standout quality imo. Please keep up this spirit and all the best!
In April 2009, National Payment Corporation of India (NPCI) was formed to integrate all the payment
mechanisms in India and make them uniform for all retail payments.
RBI released the vision statement of UPI in 2012.
No you are wrong a smart techie from Vadnagar Gujrat did all this😂😂
LOL nice try. First came IMPS (immediate payment service) which can be done through SMS as vast majority of Indians only had 2G phones. And it was a big flop. IIT Madras was part of it. But they learnt lessons from that. And in 2016 they launched UPI. This also would not have been possible without JIO disrupting the market through cheap data.
& then went to sleep.
Proud to hear Bharath Goenka's name.. I have never seen anyone who is as ethical and honest like BG sir. I think he needs to be invited here .. I am proud to be associated with this Org

I missed the live recording for this one..Thanks so much Sharad sir for joining us 🙏

Great video but misleading title
It's not misleading. He played a key role in Aadhar and creating the digital infrastructure in India.
@@nansimishra256 that is fine but the video is much more about it. The UPI struggle is just a subpart.

Yes, the title is incorrect. It should be "Why India needs product; the culmination of value addition

Upi is a blessing for all merchants and customers both , I remember us not having a credit card and only a sbi maestro debit card in the family , it was difficult booking a irctc tickets let alone online shopping, imagine your buyer ready to pay you and you not able to accept payments as a merchant
It truly has been revolutionary for India's commerce system... Thank you so much for tuning in and sharing your thoughts with us!
Nice podcast as always 😊

6:27 Fritjof kapra, not indian but read his books. Very on point about physics advancing because of philosophical thought from non-Western thinkers.
