About

"The best way to predict the future is to invent it." – Alan Kay My journey started in corporate corridors, leading YouTube India’s meteoric rise and helping build its APAC footprint. But I always believed real impact comes from building things that matter—especially from scratch. That belief led me to found OckyPocky, India’s pioneering AI-powered learning app for kids, where I transformed an idea into a category-defining product. Today, I help entrepreneurs and edtech innovators navigate the complex journey from concept to market leadership. My passion lies in building user-centric products, crafting powerful GTM strategies, and unlocking growth through data-backed decision-making and relentless iteration. As an operator-turned-founder, I have built teams, raised capital, grown ecosystems, and mentored emerging leaders. My work blends deep product insight with marketing intuition, all grounded in execution excellence. Along the way, I have been fortunate to earn recognition—from winning the CII Award for AI to being named a LinkedIn Top Voice. Whether advising startups, investing in promising founders, or speaking on global stages, I’m driven by one core goal: turning great ideas into real-world impact. Feel free to connect if you're building something ambitious or just want to jam on product, growth, or founder mindset. 📩 amit13@gmail.com
