Enjoyed reading this insightful commentary on “the AI reckoning” - "...if we become managers of infinite minds, we should also become stewards of the ends they serve."

I use @airtelindia for my fixed internet needs and they have unplanned outages almost daily with no way of reaching a human CS rep. Do they provide customers credit basis the downtime. Does @TRAI has any expectations from operators with regard to service levels. Shockingly bad!

Where Were Unicorn Founders Born?

New result on immigrants & US economy

For 1,078 founders of 500 US unicorns, I identified founders' countries of birth. Conclusion: Over four out of ten unicorn founders are first gen immigrants.

It has been a privilege to work closely with Saahil, Gautam, Akshay, Vishesh and the rest of the Shiprocket team as they accelerate D2C commerce in India. Look forward to working with new investors @zomato , @Temasek and @Lightrock_India in the next leg of this journey.

[Rajan Mehra @rajanm]

What a super finish to 2021! @MarchCPs portfolio company @ShiprocketIndia raises $185M in its Series E round.

In 2021, @saahilbigfoot and team grew Shiprocket into India’s leading eCommerce shipping software.

[Rajan Mehra @rajanm]

With this funding round, Shiprocket will further extend their platform capabilities to power the entire post-checkout experience of D2C websites, thereby empowering small brands and retailers to compete with larger eCommerce platforms.
