India vs China
                                        India today is like China in…

            *Important Note: India will follow a very different growth path from China. In some
            areas, India may never catch up. In others, it could leapfrog China‟s growth (e.g. in
            smartphone & tablet usage).

Internet Culture
    • India missed the PC Revolution
        -   Personal computer was and still is too expensive for the general population. For many,
            their first exposure to internet is through mobile phones and tablets in the future.

    • Indians are using the internet without realizing it
        -   Here are examples of some Indian startup that provides human interfaces to the
            internet:
            - People can search the web via a phone call (JustDial, $720M valuation),
            - Travel agent who is simply typing customer queries into websites to facilitate ticket
            purchasing (Makemytrip, $688M valuation, Redbus, $200M valuation)

    • The missing internet cafes & gaming culture
        -   One would expect India to be filled with internet cafes like other developing countries, but
            you rarely see them in the big cities due to regulations.
        -   Perhaps due to the lack of consistent internet connections, there isn‟t a strong gaming
            culture in India either. That should change as India‟s internet connectivity improves.



       “I believe there is room for one or two billion dollar online gaming companies in India ”
                                                                               @benjaminjoffe

Competition
    • Fast-growing market with limited competition
        -   India is a young ecosystem with a relatively small number startup companies at the
            moment.
        -   The risk-averse culture leads to less competition than in the US and China.
        -   Currently, the only real competition is in the e-commerce sector, many other fields are
            wide open.
        -   Angels/VCs rarely compete for deals, which leads to lower valuations among Indian
            startups than what is seen in the Valley.


        Important note: The lack of overall competition is hurting India‟s startups as it leads
        to poorer quality, lower valuations and slower market-building.

      “If you want to get married, don’t do a startup.” – Delhi startup event audience

  • Many Internet companies are solving big infrastructure problems
      -   Flipkart is building their own shipment and cash-on-delivery workforce to solve India‟s poor
          logistics and payment infrastructures.
      -   Companies like Redbus provide software/devices to bus companies, to build India‟s missing
          ticketing infrastructure.
      -   Quick Note: Trust in online stores is still an issue, so all e-commerce companies are
          effectively participating in market-building.


  • Startups have high social risk for founders
      -   Startup founders might have trouble getting married! It‟s a bad point on the matchmaking check-
          list, like being a struggling artist (without the glamour).
      -   Thus, to convince someone to join your startup, you‟ll likely end up needing to convince their
          entire family!
  • Lots of traditional entrepreneurs
      -   India has millions of entrepreneurs. They are mostly small business owners and fairly risk-averse
          so they stick to traditional cash-flow businesses and family run businesses.
      -   Due to people‟s traditional cash-flow mindset, in the tech space, startups that can monetize
          quickly are favored by both entrepreneurs and investors (e.g. E-commerce).

    • India is “Made in China”
        -   India import an incredible amount of good from China, despite its ultra-low wage. Nearly all
            products sold are manufactured in China and later shipped to India. Why? Efficiency,
            infrastructure and short term vision by the manufacturers. Indians in general prefer to be
            “traders” than to be “makers”.


    • Unusually high interest rate
        -   India‟s nominal interest rate is ~10%. Why risk it at a startup?
        -   Real-estate, gold investments and traditional cash-flow businesses are much more appealing to
            most investors.


    • Few returnees
        -   India has a lower returnee rate in comparison to China. This could be because the living
            condition is not yet good enough to attract the top talents back to India. 1.65M out

    • India time
        -   Due to culture & poor traffic, it‟s expected that people
            will be late to meetings/events. 15min-1hr delay is common,
            but sometimes it can be as long as 2 hrs.


    • Decision by committee
        -   India is also slow because of the decision by committee mentality.
            Everything is slower in India by a factor of 2-10x in comparison to Silicon Valley.


    • Despite difficult conditions, people seem content
        -   People‟s expectations are focused on lower tiers of Maslow‟s hierarchy of needs (feeding their
            family). Among the general population, there‟s little drive to change things for the better.
        -   People are accustomed to living under difficult conditions. They seem happy with the country‟s
            recent progress and are optimistic for the future.

India Infrastructure

            Everything is possible, nothing is easy. Lots of “friction”.



        Roads – Poorly planned
        Logistics – Inefficient
        Internet – Slow & unreliable
        Water– Numerous Outages
        Electricity – Frequent power cuts




            Important note: According to many, infrastructures are much better from where
            they were just a few years ago.

            Talent Costs                          Entry level                    Good experienced hire
     Industry salary (yearly)                           $10k                             $20k - $30k
     Startups salary (yearly)                        $6k-$8k                        $18k-$24k + equity


   • Plenty of engineers, few specialized experts
        -    India graduates over 1M engineers every year, many of which join big IT firms.
        -    Good engineers do not stay in engineering, they seek management for a better paycheck.
        -    As a result, senior developers, designers, marketers, product managers are hard to find. Experts in
             specific technologies (e.g. Node.js, Hadoop) are virtually nonexistent.
   • IIT rules India. But you can hire from other schools
        -    Indian Institute of Technology is the MIT of India, but their engineers are easily the best but are the
             most expensive. For startups, look beyond IIT for schools with good internship programs like like
             Birla Institute of Technology & Science.
   • Avoid job sites
        -    You‟ll be bombarded with tons of doctored resumes. Stick with recruiters and your network.

Policies
    • Strict rules against foreign multi-brand retailers
        -   India is extremely protective of its retail sector and forbids major foreign investments in multi-
            brand retailers (Walmart/Bestbuy). These laws are evolving and startups have found ways to
            get around this rule, so expect to see major changes in India‟s retail sector soon.


    • Incorporate base on potential capital source
        -   Startups seeking only Indian capital tend to incorporate in India.
        -   Startups seeking foreign capital tend to incorporate in Delaware or Singapore.


    • The new startup tax is more annoyance than
      deterrence
        -   India proposed a new startup tax to battle money laundering schemes. India angel
            investments are now taxed at 30%, for any amounts that exceeds accounting laws of a fair
            market valuation.
        -   This law will not be stop the angel investments in India, but it will generate unnecessary
            costs and annoyances to the startups.

India Opportunities
    •   India missed the PC revolution, but will it catch up in the phone and tablet
        revolution?

    •   Organized retail is responsible for only 7-8% of the total retail market. The
        question is not “if”, but rather “how and when” the retail market will change
        and who will change it.

    •   The country‟s infrastructure needs a lot of help. Fortunately, India is open
        to privatizing some of these infrastructures. Can startup leverage
        technology take a piece of this big pie?

    •   70% of the country lives under $2 a day and is neglected by the first world.
        Can innovations touch these 840M people?

“In India, you skate to where the puck is right now”
                                                                         @Bowei

Advice for Local Entrepreneurs
    •   Stay in India, there are lots of unfilled opportunities waiting to be
        tackled, you don‟t need to reinvent the wheel. Just “skate to where the puck
        is right now” and focus on execution.

    •   Try to get into an incubator/accelerator to avoid a lot of the early mistakes
        that people make. You‟ll also have an easier time finding mentors and
        funding in the future.

    •   If you must come to the US, remember many US startups have Indian co-
        founders (rumored to be up to 62%). Reach out to them for help and they‟ll
        likely give you a hand.

Advice for Foreign Entrepreneurs
    •   In correlation to China‟s internet history, many Indian startup wins will come
        in the next few years from returnees/foreigners. Unfortunately, that
        opportunity won‟t last, so if you want to come then come soon.

    •   You will be highly regarded, so use it to your advantage. Be bold, tackle the
        big opportunities that scare away most of the local entrepreneurs. But also
        be humble, go find yourself an Indian co-founder who can navigate the
        complicated and often convoluted social & business pathways.

Advice for Foreign Angels
    •   Yes, it is safe to invest for exploratory purposes.

    •   Have realistic expectation for your investment. IPOs are virtually non-
        existent in India. Most local angels aim for series B exits or small
        acquisitions.

    •   Definitely co-invest with reputable organizations. Let the local investment
        groups complete your due diligence (e.g.Mumbai
        angels, GSF, Seedfund, 500Startups, IAN, Blume, Kae Capital, etc.).

    •   India is an easier market to break into than China. Talent is cheap and
        regulations are good. Online companies can easily win in
        India, Google, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn are doing amazingly well. On
        the other hand, companies relying on offline infrastructures like Ebay and
        Amazon are getting killed by the local competitors. Know thyself and you
        can win in India.

    •   Be PATIENT! Business progresses slower than usual in India because of
        the poor infrastructures, slower pace of life and people‟s general lack of
        motivation. This is unavoidable. India has a ton of potential, but it is a LONG
        market. You will win eventually, but don‟t be discouraged by the initial
        results.

Conclusion
         There‟s no doubt India will grow, the only question is how fast?

         India is a place that can be whatever you want it to be. It can be
         ideal for a small cash flow business or a billion dollar empire. It‟s
         true, building a company in India is full of friction, but less friction
         usually means 10x the competition.

         Pick your battles.

In some areas, India may never catch up. In others, it could leapfrog China‟s growth (e.g. in smartphone & tablet usage). Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved

  • 12. Culture “When you face India’s traffic, you understand why India developed meditation” @BenjaminJoffe Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 13. Internet Culture • India missed the PC Revolution - Personal computer was and still is too expensive for the general population. For many, their first exposure to internet is through mobile phones and tablets in the future. • Indians are using the internet without realizing it - Here are examples of some Indian startup that provides human interfaces to the internet: - People can search the web via a phone call (JustDial, $720M valuation), - Travel agent who is simply typing customer queries into websites to facilitate ticket purchasing (Makemytrip, $688M valuation, Redbus, $200M valuation) • The missing internet cafes & gaming culture - One would expect India to be filled with internet cafes like other developing countries, but you rarely see them in the big cities due to regulations. - Perhaps due to the lack of consistent internet connections, there isn‟t a strong gaming culture in India either. That should change as India‟s internet connectivity improves. “I believe there is room for one or two billion dollar online gaming companies in India ” @benjaminjoffe Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 14. Competition • Fast-growing market with limited competition - India is a young ecosystem with a relatively small number startup companies at the moment. - The risk-averse culture leads to less competition than in the US and China. - Currently, the only real competition is in the e-commerce sector, many other fields are wide open. - Angels/VCs rarely compete for deals, which leads to lower valuations among Indian startups than what is seen in the Valley. Important note: The lack of overall competition is hurting India‟s startups as it leads to poorer quality, lower valuations and slower market-building. Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 15. Startup Surprises “If you want to get married, don’t do a startup.” – Delhi startup event audience • Many Internet companies are solving big infrastructure problems - Flipkart is building their own shipment and cash-on-delivery workforce to solve India‟s poor logistics and payment infrastructures. - Companies like Redbus provide software/devices to bus companies, to build India‟s missing ticketing infrastructure. - Quick Note: Trust in online stores is still an issue, so all e-commerce companies are effectively participating in market-building. • Startups have high social risk for founders - Startup founders might have trouble getting married! It‟s a bad point on the matchmaking check- list, like being a struggling artist (without the glamour). - Thus, to convince someone to join your startup, you‟ll likely end up needing to convince their entire family! • Lots of traditional entrepreneurs - India has millions of entrepreneurs. They are mostly small business owners and fairly risk-averse so they stick to traditional cash-flow businesses and family run businesses. - Due to people‟s traditional cash-flow mindset, in the tech space, startups that can monetize quickly are favored by both entrepreneurs and investors (e.g. E-commerce). Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 16. India Surprises • India is “Made in China” - India import an incredible amount of good from China, despite its ultra-low wage. Nearly all products sold are manufactured in China and later shipped to India. Why? Efficiency, infrastructure and short term vision by the manufacturers. Indians in general prefer to be “traders” than to be “makers”. • Unusually high interest rate - India‟s nominal interest rate is ~10%. Why risk it at a startup? - Real-estate, gold investments and traditional cash-flow businesses are much more appealing to most investors. • Few returnees - India has a lower returnee rate in comparison to China. This could be because the living condition is not yet good enough to attract the top talents back to India. 1.65M out Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 17. India Surprises cont. • India time - Due to culture & poor traffic, it‟s expected that people will be late to meetings/events. 15min-1hr delay is common, but sometimes it can be as long as 2 hrs. • Decision by committee - India is also slow because of the decision by committee mentality. Everything is slower in India by a factor of 2-10x in comparison to Silicon Valley. • Despite difficult conditions, people seem content - People‟s expectations are focused on lower tiers of Maslow‟s hierarchy of needs (feeding their family). Among the general population, there‟s little drive to change things for the better. - People are accustomed to living under difficult conditions. They seem happy with the country‟s recent progress and are optimistic for the future. Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved

  • 20. India Infrastructure Everything is possible, nothing is easy. Lots of “friction”. Roads – Poorly planned Logistics – Inefficient Internet – Slow & unreliable Water– Numerous Outages Electricity – Frequent power cuts Important note: According to many, infrastructures are much better from where they were just a few years ago. Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 21. Talents “Too many Indians, not enough chiefs” - @benjaminjoffe Talent Costs Entry level Good experienced hire Industry salary (yearly) $10k $20k - $30k Startups salary (yearly) $6k-$8k $18k-$24k + equity • Plenty of engineers, few specialized experts - India graduates over 1M engineers every year, many of which join big IT firms. - Good engineers do not stay in engineering, they seek management for a better paycheck. - As a result, senior developers, designers, marketers, product managers are hard to find. Experts in specific technologies (e.g. Node.js, Hadoop) are virtually nonexistent. • IIT rules India. But you can hire from other schools - Indian Institute of Technology is the MIT of India, but their engineers are easily the best but are the most expensive. For startups, look beyond IIT for schools with good internship programs like like Birla Institute of Technology & Science. • Avoid job sites - You‟ll be bombarded with tons of doctored resumes. Stick with recruiters and your network. Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 22. Policies • Strict rules against foreign multi-brand retailers - India is extremely protective of its retail sector and forbids major foreign investments in multi- brand retailers (Walmart/Bestbuy). These laws are evolving and startups have found ways to get around this rule, so expect to see major changes in India‟s retail sector soon. • Incorporate base on potential capital source - Startups seeking only Indian capital tend to incorporate in India. - Startups seeking foreign capital tend to incorporate in Delaware or Singapore. • The new startup tax is more annoyance than deterrence - India proposed a new startup tax to battle money laundering schemes. India angel investments are now taxed at 30%, for any amounts that exceeds accounting laws of a fair market valuation. - This law will not be stop the angel investments in India, but it will generate unnecessary costs and annoyances to the startups.

  • 23. Community Outlook ** Startup Pillars Rating Notes Good to see some early success like Entrepreneur-led Good Munkund Mohan starting to take charge. Long term vision Indian startup community leaders have a Great (20+ years) long term vision, even beyond 20 years. Many entry-level ones, fewer events for Events for all skill levels Could be better semi-experienced entrepreneurs Incredibly warm community, but Inclusive of others Great entrepreneurs could use more peer support when startups fail. ** Based off of Brad Feld‟s Boulder Thesis on startup communities Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 24. Unique Local Innovations Find anything and everything with a phone call. Like Google w/a giant call center for people without access to internet. Offline marketing, community building & analytics using free miscalls as call to action Cash-on-delivery. Created a national-wide team to solve India‟s payments and logistics challenges. Other interesting models: Olacab, Redbus, Zivame. These models are likely to work other emerging markets Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 25. India Opportunities • India missed the PC revolution, but will it catch up in the phone and tablet revolution? • Organized retail is responsible for only 7-8% of the total retail market. The question is not “if”, but rather “how and when” the retail market will change and who will change it. • The country‟s infrastructure needs a lot of help. Fortunately, India is open to privatizing some of these infrastructures. Can startup leverage technology take a piece of this big pie? • 70% of the country lives under $2 a day and is neglected by the first world. Can innovations touch these 840M people?

  • 29. “In India, you skate to where the puck is right now” @Bowei Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 30. Advice for Local Entrepreneurs • Stay in India, there are lots of unfilled opportunities waiting to be tackled, you don‟t need to reinvent the wheel. Just “skate to where the puck is right now” and focus on execution. • Try to get into an incubator/accelerator to avoid a lot of the early mistakes that people make. You‟ll also have an easier time finding mentors and funding in the future. • If you must come to the US, remember many US startups have Indian co- founders (rumored to be up to 62%). Reach out to them for help and they‟ll likely give you a hand. Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 31. Advice for Foreign Entrepreneurs • In correlation to China‟s internet history, many Indian startup wins will come in the next few years from returnees/foreigners. Unfortunately, that opportunity won‟t last, so if you want to come then come soon. • You will be highly regarded, so use it to your advantage. Be bold, tackle the big opportunities that scare away most of the local entrepreneurs. But also be humble, go find yourself an Indian co-founder who can navigate the complicated and often convoluted social & business pathways. Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 32. Advice for Foreign Angels • Yes, it is safe to invest for exploratory purposes. • Have realistic expectation for your investment. IPOs are virtually non- existent in India. Most local angels aim for series B exits or small acquisitions. • Definitely co-invest with reputable organizations. Let the local investment groups complete your due diligence (e.g.Mumbai angels, GSF, Seedfund, 500Startups, IAN, Blume, Kae Capital, etc.). Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 33. Advice for Foreign Companies • India is an easier market to break into than China. Talent is cheap and regulations are good. Online companies can easily win in India, Google, Facebook, Twitter and LinkedIn are doing amazingly well. On the other hand, companies relying on offline infrastructures like Ebay and Amazon are getting killed by the local competitors. Know thyself and you can win in India. • Be PATIENT! Business progresses slower than usual in India because of the poor infrastructures, slower pace of life and people‟s general lack of motivation. This is unavoidable. India has a ton of potential, but it is a LONG market. You will win eventually, but don‟t be discouraged by the initial results. Join us: @WorldStartupRpt © 2013 All Rights Reserved
  • 34. Conclusion There‟s no doubt India will grow, the only question is how fast? India is a place that can be whatever you want it to be. It can be ideal for a small cash flow business or a billion dollar empire. It‟s true, building a company in India is full of friction, but less friction usually means 10x the competition.
