And how he had to tweak it to fit India. He also talks about how his startup pivoted to provide child healthcare via schools – a missing link that has really propelled his startup!

#AskMarcas campaign!

Marcas (a company that helps startups register IP and featured on episode 49) have been kind enough to partner with us to provide a forum for all startups to ask questions related to trademark registration. Simply use the hashtag #AskMarcas and ask your question. We’ll answer this in an upcoming session of FoundersGyan. Also, we will be having a special segment on upcoming episodes in association with Marcas to clear out misconceptions related to trademark and IP registration.
