ماذا لو كانت الفكرة التي تبحث عنها موجودة حولك بالفعل؟ | Jiwandeep Singh Ghai (JD Ghai) | TEDxSukhna Lake

في محاضرة TEDxSukhna Lake، يتحدث Jiwandeep Singh Ghai (JD Ghai)، مؤسس الرئيس التنفيذي لموقع SantaBanta.com، أحد أوائل بوابات الترفيه في الهند، عن رحلة مشروعه. بدأ الأمر بحب الفكاهة ومحادثة عادية في حفلة واهتمام بالإنترنت الناشئ، ثم تحول إلى عمل رقمي وصل إلى ملايين الأشخاص. كما يتناول انتقاله من أعمال عائلته في العقارات إلى المجال الرقمي. وتتمثل رسالته في أن الأفكار غالباً ما تكون موجودة في تجاربنا اليومية.

• بداية SantaBanta.com كموقع فكاهة أُطلق عام 1999

• دروس في المثابرة والتجريب وتغير اهتمامات الجمهور

Where do great ideas come from? And what if the idea you're looking for is already hidden in your everyday experiences? In this engaging talk, JD Ghai takes us through the unexpected journey behind his venture, one of India's early digital entertainment platforms. What began with a love for humour, an ordinary conversation at a party and a curiosity about the emerging internet eventually became a business that reached millions of people. Drawing from his 27 years in the digital space, JD Ghai shares how he moved beyond his family's real estate business, took a chance on an unfamiliar industry and built a venture through perseverance, experimentation and an ability to understand changing audience interests. His message is simple: ideas are all around us. Sometimes, we just need to look at our experiences differently to recognise them.
