Is this a fair approximation of the current landscape?

China also did it’s share of delivery and betting and influencer startups.

Unfortunately for us, and luckily for them, their ecosystem head already moved past this and into more advanced tech products like shown here

Think EV & Battery Tech, Semiconductors & AI, Robotics & Automation, Global Logistics & Trade, and Deep Tech & Infrastructure. They’re investing heavily in the future, building self-reliance, and aiming to dominate global markets.

Meanwhile, India’s startup scene had to quickly move past the focus on convenience and entertainment, and focus on startups and products that can provide long-term economic productivity and resource efficiency.

This isn’t about casting blame, but about understanding where we are and where we need to go. India has immense talent and potential. How can we shift our focus towards innovation that builds real, sustainable value and competes on a global scale?

What are your thoughts on this comparison?

PS: Got into a convo with Krishna based on this WhatsApp forward.
