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.
