Por que as grandes empresas nunca são construídas na primeira ideia | Dr. Saarthak Bakshi | TEDxCUH

Nesta palestra do TEDxCUH, o Dr. Saarthak Bakshi, fundador e CEO da Risaa IVF e investidor-anjo em mais de 40 empresas, analisa o ciclo de vida de uma ideia de startup. Ele percorre o caminho do pitch e do protótipo até a dor, o pivô e o ajuste produto-mercado. Como exemplos, cita a transformação da Oravel na OYO e a evolução da Fashnear na Meesho. O argumento central é que grandes empresas nascem de um "pensamento em trânsito" que os fundadores deixam evoluir diante de feedbacks duros, e não de um plano pronto.

• Ciclo da startup: pitch, protótipo, pivô
• Exemplos de Oravel para OYO e Fashnear para Meesho
• Por que ideias adaptáveis funcionam melhor

What if the secret to building a successful startup isn't having a perfect idea, but rather the willingness to completely change it? Drawing on his experience as an angel investor in over 40 companies, this speaker explores the turbulent lifecycle of a startup idea. By analyzing the journey from pitch to prototype, pain, pivot, and finally product-market fit, he highlights how rigid, static concepts fail while dynamic, adaptable ones succeed. He shares real-world examples, such as Oravel transitioning into OYO and Fashnear evolving into Meesho, to demonstrate how initial plans rarely survive their first contact with the market. The central idea is simple: a great company is never born from a finished plan, but from a "thought in transit" that founders must allow to travel, evolve, and adapt to harsh feedback.
