Yesterday marked the 3rd anniversary of StartupDunia. Wow – its hard to believe its been 3 years already. Its been an amazing journey so far, of course with its share of ups and downs. Along the way, I’ve made some awesome contacts and friends and come in touch with folks whom I would have never come across otherwise.
I know that this year I’m not posting as frequently as I’d want to – I’d actually attribute that to two reasons.
1) Honestly, there isnt a whole lot of startups happening in India – doesnt matter what anyone says or how many events / b-plan competitions you have. Of course, I could always rinse and rehash tech news, but I’d prefer to post original thoughts on this blog, even if thats infrequent. I’d rather post when I have something to say rather than just posting for the sake of it.
2) There have been some ongoing transitions in my life leaving me with less time to blog
I know I’ve said this before, but I’ll sure try to post more frequently. Meanwhile, if you’re interested in writing for StartupDunia, drop me an email (if you have a blog, provide a link to your blog) including your background details (sorry – I dont make money from this blog to pay you money).
Finally, I’m grateful to my wife who’s been very understanding & supportive throughtout these 3 years – seriously, all the blogging time is time away from her – so without her support, it’d have been just impossible to do.
And of course, thanks to all of my readers and especially those of you who take the time to comment on posts.


Congrats Pranav! Would love to see you post more.
Cheerio!

Hi Pranav,
Congratulations on the 3rd anniversary of the blog. I would love to contribute to the blog.
I have been following the startup scene in U.S. for a long time and have recently sparked interest in bringing these ideas to the Indian market. I have gained tremendous insight from your blog regarding it.
I would love to contribute to this blog. Please send me your email address where I can send a direct message.

Thanks Pranav for the excellent work you are doing. Indeed the startup scene in India has been dormant lately, however, it’s good to know you are covering whatever is present.

And agreed, there has not been many interesting startups worth talking about… either the hype is too early or the market is not mature yet for tech startups… or a bit of both.
Congrats.I started reading your blog around 6 months back and i am totally hooked up to your blog now.I regularly read your blog.Keep the good posts coming.
I find some of your blogs really useful. I think you have done a great job overall… It is very difficult to keep motivation level up for this long and that too while talking sense
Great job!!!!
