  • Sridhar Vembu, CEO of Zoho shares his thoughts on what is a startup; his precious advice on what he thinks of bootstrapping and real business; his life journey on what did it take to build an organization from scratch, the mistakes he made, the lessons he learned; how to scale a business, and what's his advice for startups.

    People like Ratan Tata, You and few others are building India in a real sense. I always see highly skilled people who just criticise the country and move abroad but real son like you provide solutions to the problems. Thank you so much for motivating us. ❤️🇮🇳

    I have been working with small businesses most of my adult life as a professional accountant in Canada. I've had clients lucky enough to approach unicorn status on two occasions. The situation in Canada is similar to what it is in India. Most businesses here are tiny. I feel incredibly annoyed by business schools and management consultants that claim the ability to reverse engineer the prerequisites for a successful business. Studying successful entrepreneurs and developing theories about why they were successful is easy. It's impossible to predict who will scale exponentially when they start.
    Mr. Vembu nailed it!

    You are really a deep thinker, and visionary. ....in fact, to make it short I am running thru this -5 to 0 journey and lose a lot of my saving chunk to try my first product, and I failed significantly, but its the game and need to stand again to struggle and I am doing it. but this is inspirational. Thanks Mr. Sridhar...

    In my initial days I used to think I should get job in google zoho Microsoft and on doing my degree my dream changed from being an employee to an entrepreneur and now to an employer.... Business is a lesson which only in real world we can learn it by doing mistakes. Thought of leaving my dream many a time but still the next day I used to start with it totally forgetting every thought of leaving my dream yesterday...... Hope I will get succeed soon in near future....

    I fully agreewith this idea. It is better to go with small industries to lo do the learning.At the end of this learning , if your learning is correct industries search you out.and put you inthe right place. At the retiring end you still find that there is more,if you are physicslly alright, there is muchmre that you csn contribute for research. So keep gping until you are put to RIP.. all the best from a person with 55 years of serving in private unorganised sector.
