Then the #EE21 cohort finds itself in the spotlight (or the crosshairs). The founding teams will put their learning to the test, pitching their ventures in Pitch Simulations. It’s a leap of faith, a battle of nerves. It’s not called #TestyTuesday for nothing.
This #TestyTuesday, we’ve got Ryan Roslansky @ryros, CEO of @LinkedIn, on point to deliver a masterclass on ‘The Journey From 1 To N’. He’ll share insights on finding PMF, building liquidity, community vs marketplace and fighting disruption in an ever shifting world. #EE21
6 weeks of intense and thought-provoking learning. 17 founding teams from India and SEA, pushed beyond the horizon of what’s possible. Groomed by mentors and legendary speakers who unlock ambition of a greater magnitude. Welcome to the finale of #EE21!
@kumarharsha2212@Tracxn@lightspeedee Was great fun chatting with you @kumarharsha2212 and the amazing cohort at EE. Being part of Summer Lightspeed program myself back in Stanford says, do know how invaluable it was for us and Tracxn’s product launch. Highly recommend EE for all entrepreneurs!!
We had an incredible #EE21 session with @abhirajbhal, Co-Founder of @urbancompany_UC. In a sensational masterclass on ‘The Drunken Walk To PMF’, Abhiraj took the cohort through the early days of Urban Company and the twist and turns in achieving PMF. Takeaways in thread 👇 (1/12)
We were privileged to host Byju Raveendran, founder & CEO of the eponymous BYJU's, for the latest @lightspeedee masterclass! Byju covered recruiting, scaling and founder mindset. More in the thread! 1/n
Got lucky to share a screen with @balajis. Loved the entire session, especially the framework on getting ahead of time.
1. Robustify your social network supply chain
2. Achieve personal financial independence
3. Be prepared to fight
Thanks @MohapatraHemant@lightspeedee :)
Frame the future with your belief. Because the earlier it is, the less you have to show. And that’s when the depth of your storytelling becomes crucial.

When someone shows up in a way that’s really authentic, you feel it. People that sell will take you out of an analytical mindset. There’s something more emotional that’s taking place. You’re buying into something.

The #TestyTuesday clinic is now in session. Bejul Somaia, #EE21 Mentor and Lightspeed Partner, now conducts an interactive session on everything that goes into great early stage fund raising - and what doesn't.
Listening to @balajis moderated by @MohapatraHemant in their extreme entrepreneurship series.
Why did Balajis moved to SE asia? Combination of push and pull.
@MohapatraHemant that was an excellent, wide ranging conversation with @balajis!
Asked a question about India's role in a solving problems related to longevity, got a 2 min tutorial on how to practically solve for reincarnation. Yes, you read it right, reincarnation. Loved it!
What a power packed session by @balajis hosted by @MohapatraHemant and @LightspeedIndia 👏
What Balaji speaks in an hour, probably takes 4x hours to totally digest and make sense of 😂
So here is 🧵 of pointers! 1/11
