When we actually went and launched there,

the requirements were so different.

And of course, we had gone and tested it out.

But road conditions are different.

The loading factors are different.

How strong should the bike chassis be based on the loading factors is very different.

How strong should the engine be so that it can run in those conditions is very different.

It's a multi-retail framework rather than exclusive retail like in India.

So the retail strategies are very different.

I understood all this while executing.

So going on the ground, you know, putting your ear and actually listening to what the market is saying.

So I think Hero gave me a very good foundation in that.

And then I think Hero is when iNetNet thought that I've now had

experience across the top companies in india i've done consulting i know cross-sectoral i have cross-sectoral understanding and then why not you know eventually get into startups so after hero then i went to this company called oyo and in oyo i was heading there us and canadian so i launched their us in canadian market

And then I was eventually heading the revenue of 14 countries in Southeast Asia, Middle East, and then Japan.

Right?

So I think OYO was also a very, very good experience.

At that time, OYO raised a lot of funds from SoftBank.

And the talent density was so good, so immense.

I think many of the OYO alumni have done exceptionally well.
