Satyanarayanan Seshadri’s Post

Delighted to be a part of Ideabaaz, a unique initiative powered by ZeeTV with IITM Global as the Knowledge Partner, that’s taking India’s startup story to growth cities. What makes Ideabaaz truly different is its scale and impact: 26 episodes airing nationwide on the Zee Network, DD, and top OTT platforms; 78 startups getting their moment (and the mentorship they deserve); and an acclaimed investor jury featuring the who’s who: Anupam Bansal, Shaili Chopra, Jimmy Mistry, Sandesh Sharda, Arjun Vaidya, Archana Jahagirdar, Rishabh Mariwala, Simron Mohapatra, Pawan Jaggi, and Priyanka Salot. Real funding. Real investors. Real pathways from seed to unicorn. No fluff. No bluff. The show is telling these stories in every Indian language because dreams have no subtitles, PIN codes, genders, or languages. Whether you are building something in Madurai, Kochi, Mysuru, Srinagar, Udaipur, Bhatinda, Rajahmundry, or a village anywhere in the country, this is your platform. As a member of the Tech Jury from IIT Madras, it was inspiring to meet passionate entrepreneurs with groundbreaking ideas that can truly make a difference. Heartfelt thanks to the founding members of the Ideabaaz team (Mr. Jeet Wagh & Mr. Mudit Kumar) and the brilliant minds behind the show for creating this transformative platform for India’s startup ecosystem. Tune in to watch Ideabaaz, premiering October 25 on ZeeTV and Zee5 at 6:30 PM, and witness some of India’s most promising startup journeys unfold.
