Helping innovative start-ups raise funds and building a valuable venture together by brand management, Development, marketing and pre sales. A little about myself. “Dejection is a sign of failure but it becomes the cause of success”. I wrote this when I was 16 years old and that’s exactly when I idealised the reality of life. In this current world, success is defined in many ways, some of which include money, fame and power. I believe that success is just the beginning of a new problem. Every step of our lives we work hard to solve an issue and every time we end up with a new problem. I started my journey in the world of entrepreneurship during my college days at Bangalore. I was about 17 years old when I thought of an idea “ HUB “, a social media platform which fights financial constraint and allows passionate individuals who want to grow and transform their dreams into reality. I left my house at the early age of 17 years and have been independent ever since. Worked in many small firms to save money for my London dream. One final day, I ended up in London. Home to the esteem and elite, London didn’t treat me well. Loneliness and hunger took over my world. But I never lost my faith in the idea. After two years of hard work, life presented an opportunity to transform my idea into a fully functional startup | HOPE. One of my best skills is Strategy, you give me any product and I can make money out of it. All I needed is a team and a lot of coffee. Again, all I had was HOPE and all I did when needed help is ASK. It’s surprising how people are willing to be a part of your fight when they know it’s worth fighting for. And today here I am in Bangalore, living in the world I built once in a paper with endless words. Regards, Pramod Badiger Founder and CEO HUB
