About

- Permanent β - Currently oscillating between building and boarding passes. I’ve been lucky to co-create some of Asia's largest product and founder communities (and some day, the world's third place) — truly spots where ideas become action, and people pay it forward without waiting to be asked. If we’ve met through one of those, hey again 👋 I love connecting people, ideas & capital. Inspired by @patio11, this is an open invitation: If you’re building something ambitious, figuring out growth, community, early distribution, or just looking out for your next role and need a thoughtful intro — I might know someone who knows someone who can help. And if not, I’ll still give it a shot, HMU: ✉️ Email: suhas@theproductfolks.com 💬 DMs work too, if you lead with context. A few pointers (trying this version as a public work-with-me doc): - I read all messages. I reply to many. I ignore none on purpose. - Specific asks > vague - If you’re pitching a “synergy-as-a-service for AI-powered disruptors,” my primary folder is probably full of these already haha - No need to humblebrag. I’ve shipped MVPs that broke on refresh. I get it. And it's okay. The why? Because this ecosystem gave me more than I ever expected — while I'm still far from the peak, this is just my way of sending the elevator back down. With a meme or two inside :D If you're here, you're probably already halfway to a conversation. Let's build. Or banter. Your pick. — Suhas
