Very specific, to the point and very engaging. If you are a start up founder or thinking to start either tech or non tech. Speak to Rishav

The learning was exponential, made us think about the stuff we could have done better, and every time we think of introducing a new feature, how to do the same without wasting a lot of time and resources. 

Really an insightful session!

It's nice talking to Rishav sir, He is a very humble person and I am looking forward to absorb all his teachings

It was great connecting with Rishav. The best part was he knew the industry he is planning to invest in.

The webinar was great, cleared quite a few topics and made me understand how to do market survey for my specific use case.

Hi Rishav, thanks for your time.
Great talking to you.

Will get back to you on WhatsApp and Slack.

This was very useful, especially the case studies were realistic unlike most webinars. Overall very helpful !

Thanks Rishav for the input. Will definitely work on them and do a rigorous research and will get back to you soon. Thanks for the information and scheduling the call.
