Episode Description:

We are excited to announce SummitUp, a fresh new series from Elevation where we discuss emerging themes and spaces in India’s startup ecosystem that we are deeply excited about and our thesis about how we see these opportunities shaping up over the coming years.

In each episode, Vishy V (Head of Marketing, Elevation) will be joined by the members of our investment teams who will break down the dynamics of big ideas and trends across sectors and provide insights that are actionable for founders and aspiring builders.

In the inaugural episode of SummitUp, we dive deep into the world of online marketplaces, a theme we’ve been deeply involved with since its earliest days in India. Amit Agarwal (Principal, Elevation) and Manish Advani (VP, Elevation) talk about our framework for identifying and creating bold and disruptive new marketplaces in India going forward. Through compelling case studies, they distill key insights from our observations of successful platform businesses globally and explore forward-looking themes in this space in India.
