Stories of Scale-ups that are Transforming India

Foreword by Harsh Mariwala

Behind-the-scenes stories from some of India’s thriving scale-ups

In 7 Stras of Innovation, Nikhil Inamdar tracks the journeys of eight organizations that have scaled up to become top players in their own fields. The book distills seven universal and powerful sutras that are common to their success stories as they made the critical transition from being start-ups to scale-ups.

The organizations covered inside are Marico Innovation Foundation’s ‘Innovation for India’ award winners for heralding breakthrough innovations across business and social sectors.

These organizations are highly diverse in terms of sectors, products, business models and operations. However, what’s common among them is that they have achieved outstanding results with speed, scale and sustainability. The organizations featured are:

Tonbo Imaging • Goonj • Rivigo • ISRO • Forus Health • Agastya International Foundation • The Better India • St. Judes
