About the series

Harshit Agarwal, Founding Director, is taking this session to every ALTA campus, so students across Delhi NCR, Jaipur, Hyderabad, Indore and Pune hear first-hand what it takes to build something of their own.

College is one of the best times to try building something of your own: the cost of experimenting is low, you are surrounded by potential teammates, and every attempt teaches skills employers value too, from ownership to talking to users.

• Spotting problems worth solving, starting from what you see around you
• Starting small: testing an idea before spending months building it
• Building a team and working with people whose skills complement yours
• The founder mindset: ownership, speed and learning from what doesn't work

Harshit Agarwal, Founding Director, is taking this session to every ALTA campus, sharing what he has learnt about building something from the ground up.

All ALTA students, whether they already have a startup idea or are simply curious about what it takes to build one.
