Hi, I am your host Siddhartha! I have been an entrepreneur from 2012-2017 building two products AddoDoc and Babygogo. After selling my company to SHEROES, I and my partner Nansi decided to start up again. But we felt unequipped in our skillset in 2018 to build a large company. We had known 0-1 journey from our startups but lacked the experience of building 1-10 journeys.
Hence was born The Neon Show (Earlier 100x Entrepreneur) to learn from founders and investors, the mindset to scale yourself and your company. This quest still keeps us excited even after 5 years and doing 200+ episodes.
We welcome you to our journey to understand what goes behind building a super successful company. Every episode is done with a very selfish motive, that I and Nansi should come out as a better entrepreneur and professional after absorbing the learnings.

Good one

Excellent

One important question which was not asked. The massive NPA creation which the RBI as regulator failed to control shifting responsibility to the Government as the owner.
If we do get another opportunity to interview him, we will definitely make sure to ask this! Thank you for sharing your feedback with us 🙏🏾
@@TheNeonShoww Thanks for responding.I have attended one of his talks in Chennai when he was Guvernor. Very intelligent man. At 93 his memory is quite clear. I enjoyed the talk very much. Thanks.
Nice to hear from one at controls when India made drastic changes to grow the economy. Fruits of which India is enjoying today.
Great inspiration ❤
Truly a very inspirational figure... We really appreciated our time spent with him as well 🙌🏾
Such an inspiring soul at 92. Amazing!
Couldn't agree more! A very Humble personality.
Thank you
At an age when walking a few steps daily and being able to go to the toilet without support is a achievement for many, this guy is not only physically fit, he also well informed about the latest happenings around the world and how it would impact India.
One must not forget how widespread Mr. Rangarajan's contribution is towards the nation.. Among many he chaired two influential committees 1. Committee of computerization in banking sector in the 80s! 2. A committee to decide how poverty is to be calculated in 2012 I think
Rangarajan sir has really helped in India's finance sector! Thank you for sharing your insights regarding it too!
@@TheNeonShoww Please do bring more such distinguished guests, especially the finance sector stalwarts like ex rbi sebi irdai pfrda officials...it will further the financial literacy among general population. Thank you.
Good interview. Highly informative and balanced views.
Thanks, man. We have more Policy Makers podcasts coming your way. Stay tuned!
Thank you so much it might be helpful in upsc interview

He thought 20 years of economy in this podcast
He has an encyclopaedia of knowledge in him and we are super grateful we could host him on the show!
Why do anchors think that if someone was in a position for donkeys years means they are valuable. Now with the GDP growing they are shifting the goal post to "Per Capital Income".
India is a Developing country since 2014. What is there to say Growth by the present Rulers of India.? Media power n Muscle Power .. Mouth power. 😂😂😂
Why India become Bharat
When government under working not support means his life, thatway vote

Do not see any reforms brought by ManMohan Singh as a PM.
Need better interviewers. Basic mistakes. Mr. Manmohan Singh. Really? MMS may have had many flaws, but was definitely a Phd.
