Zero1 Fest 2024

Last weekend I attended the Zero1 Fest – the world’s first festival around finance and money. It was exhilarating to be in the presence of people whose content I deeply admire; whose profound knowledge especially in finance has influenced and “de-influenced” me.

I had the opportunity to see the Kamath brothers up close, whose startup serves as a powerful reminder that a business can thrive without backing of venture capital. I had a chat with Karthik Rangappa, curator of Varsity and expressed deep appreciation for his captivating content. I was nostalgic to see Rob from “M.A.D” fame, whose show was a beloved staple for 90s and early 2000s kids. I had a brief moment with Prateek Singh, Founder & CEO of LearnApp and Zero1 Media, whose talk with Radhika Gupta (Edelweiss CEO) left a lasting impression. Although I missed out on meeting many other familiar faces like Abid Hassan, Rahul Subramanian, Nas, among others, I still had a wonderful time!
