What an innings Blackbeard Glenn Maxwell @Gmaxi_32 . Kids are going to practise playing with one leg !!!

It was like my parent teacher meeting, as observed by @SameerGandotra :) Also, when @sharads reviewed a 'partition-whitepaper' with my mom. #BreakFast #Huddle #GulatiDaDarbar

This is whats on my table this morning !! Its going to be a sweet morning. New Product Launched...

When you taking a train and they advertising beachfront properties in Dubai....

I returned to India with the clear goals of creating impact and building a large outcome business. Frendy's unique digitally connected micro convenience store model is ideally suited for Bharat users by leveraging trust, curation, reach & digital commerce.

Have you seen those fast-paced graphs where one of the companies (or countries) first appears and then moves up swiftly based on time?? One of them is here. Entered this list - in about 20 months from starting. Now see them move up over the next 18 months. 2000+ women-run kiranas, only in small towns of Gujarat. With almost 30% owned, private labels products. Go @sameer_gandotra, from Wharton to Valsad :) #bharat #womenprenuers #microkiranas #proudinvestor #digitaldesh #Frendy

You saw so much rain that you got tired of it. Then you saw an opportunity. From under your 42nd umbrella :) Presenting one of the bestest, creamiest & one of the most sustainable gin from 'the' raniest place on earth. Take a bow @HazarikaMayukh @CherrapunjiGin!! #BottlingRain #Sustainability #ProudInvestor

@GulatiSinghJ @CIIEIndia @RajanAnandan @vijayshekhar @BKartRed @anuraktjain @Wharton @pa_chopra @BharatInclusion This is part of the "What they don't teach you at the Wharton School" book. Thanks @GulatiSinghJ for participating at Frendy HQ. Fun watching India's moon shot work while we continue to work on our moonshot.

When you go to The Wharton Business School, drop that lucrative Wall Street job, and prefer selecting which brooms (jhadus') are going to sell across Bharat. #realbusiness #kiranas #bharat
