TEAM
Kunal N. Talgeri
Based out of Bengaluru, Kunal’s real job is to remind everyone that there’s life south of the Vindhyas. When he’s not doing that, he’s relentlessly covering startups, IT companies, young entrepreneurs, technology, and auto. And when he takes time out from that, he’s devouring every book ever written on those industries.
The invisible entrepreneurs
In an issue that celebrates powerful women in business, it’s worth looking closely at the idea of entrepreneurship. There are few women commanding positions of power in the technology startup space. barely a hundred have built tech companies, even as 800 tech startups mushroom every year across the country. The chief cause for this is a funding system that favours male entrepreneurs. That’s doing a huge disservice to the 1.3 lakh women in technology today. It’s up to the venture community to address this shame, and let the genie out of the bottle.
