At the age of 16, with 256 Kbps Internet speed, I started my career as a self-taught graphic designer. 

After landing a few projects, I was hungry to keep learning more, and that's how I landed in web development. 

At the age of 18, while still pursuing my education, I launched my first product around WordPress security, which did wonder. It not only paid for my entire education but helped me become financially independent as a teenager.

However, I exited that project and continued with my college and freelance development. 

At the age of 20, I met my first co-founder Oscar Hernandez (He has been my co-founder ever since in everything that we do), known as Power Up Hosting; I ran the company for over 7-years before exiting. 

At 24, I started India's first PBN Hosting platform, which I later exited in 2017. 

My life changed when I launched my third startup, which failed severely and changed my whole life. 

It taught me some of the most valuable life lessons, including management, team hiring, and more. 

The failure of my third startup gave me the idea of PitchGround (My most successful startup to date, currently valued at $20m as of 2022). PitchGround is a SaaS Marketplace that bridges the gap between early-stage SaaS companies and early adopters, small-medium-sized businesses. 

With over 92% of the SaaS companies failing in the first three years of their business, our mission was to resolve this unresolved market worth over $200 billion. 

During this journey, I met my second co-founder Lukas Liesis, building the company's core foundation. 

Launched PitchGround on the 25th of September 2018, PitchGround has done over $5m in sales as a bootstrapped company, something our entire team is proud of. 

PitchGround has helped hundreds of companies and has seen over 80% of companies succeeding who are launching with us, out of which 15% of the companies can successfully raise capital post launching their SaaS on our platform. 

At PitchGround, we firmly believe in our 3P philosophy for any founder who wants to achieve a product-market fit - Product, People & Pricing (Same format). 

In 2021, I started Angel Investment, and so far, I have invested in 36 startups; I mentor some of them to give back to the community. 

In 2022, I rebuilt my previous failure, known as https://firstsales.io, which is doing $500k ARR in just 5 months.

Founder & Chief Promotor, Looking for Advisory Panel & Investors

EFTAI is © Perspective Startup Incubators 2019. All Rights Reserved. EFTAI is a concept stage Industry Body which can be floated as a profitable or non-profit company. E-Commerce, FinTech & Telco (ISP, Mobile Operators) are the 3 Cornerstones of a Triangle of India’s New Economy; the 3 carry tremendous interdependencies on each other for growth. There a host of other industries e.g. Logistics for E-Commerce which also depend on these 3. For a player like PayTM, which is both into FinTech & E-Commerce; the challenges of these 2 industries will be known in depth. 
Concept: EFTAI is modeled around AMFI (Association for Mutual Funds in India) but is different in radical ways. The EFTAI can be leveraged to: -
•	Marketing: Similar to AMFI (refer recent Ad campaign at the Champions Trophy) be used to market & promote the enhanced usage for these 3 industries. While Internet Penetration is good it can be radically improved. Use of Banking is low and Fintech even lower. E-Commerce itself is a very small part of India’s Commerce
•	Trust Building: To promote trust amongst Indian Citizens about these 3 industries, thereby providing growth
•	IndiaStack: Work with Govt. of India & NITI Aayog to promote usage of IndiaStack. This also entails detailed technology work to build e.g. common API’s for FinTech Industry (Work with Govt. for Free & generate royalty income from FinTech for the API”s is one model)
•	Regulators: Educate, work with regulators such as RBI, TRAI etc. We see so much turmoil in E-Commerce that it wont be surprising if a regulator is formed for the same
•	On the Road: Similar to PayTM’s wildly successful  “On The Road” campaign to enroll Chai Wallas, Vegetable Vendors & the likes to “Pay with PayTM”; EFTAI can do various offline activities to promote the industries
