Three failed startups. One of India's biggest B2B exits. Then returning 75% of investor money in the next venture. An entrepreneur who's lived that arc is bound to have insights for anyone building or thinking of building.Paras Chopra, founder of Wingify (sold for $200 million), Nintee, and now Lossfunk, joins us this week.We discuss the small decisions that quietly define your startup: what product to build, how to structure your team, and why setting the right communication culture early can help.Paras shares what most founders overlook early on : Pricing isn't about effort you put but about the value you create, why having competitors might actually be better than having none, and how financial metrics often distract from what really matters to customers.Paras talks about what changed between each attempt of building his startups, and why some lessons only reveal themselves the hard way and what shifts after you've seen both failure and success. Whether you're launching your first company or planning your next, this conversation will give you the clarity needed to tilt the odds in your favor.Check out The Book of Clarity by Paras Chopra.00:00 – Startups Should Be Like Cults02:25 – Building a Founder's Value System03:25 – Bet on What Won't Change in 10 Years05:15 – What AI Can't Do Well (Yet)10:00 – Do Humans Even Want Accuracy?10:57 – What Founders Should Not Build or Sell13:35 – Are many competitors better than none?19:47 – Why Repeating Success Is Hard21:20 – Customer Value Metrics > Financial Metrics23:35 – Why Paras's Startup after Wingify Didn't Work27:00 – What Is Micro Communication?30:41 – Writing Culture in a Startup32:50 – Obsess Over Organisational Design37:15 – Is Luck in Our Hands?41:24 – Why Bias Is Risky for Entrepreneurs42:35 – Great Startups Look Like Toys at First44:00 – Why Deep Tech Startups Struggle to Succeed46:09 – Paras's New Venture Lossfunk49:23 – Why Uncertainty Is a Startup Moat55:56 – What Most Founders Get Wrong About Pricing57:36 – Should Price be on Effort or Value?59:23 – Wingify Innovated on Just One Metric1:00:25 – What Is Failure for Paras?1:04:08 – Diversify Your Self-Worth Like a Portfolio1:05:21 – The Startup Game Is a Mental Game1:06:43 – Did Wingify Create Wealth or Just Money?---​​India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

With a catalog full of art house favorites like The Witch, Spring Breakers, Moonlight, and Uncut Gems, it's hard to deny that A24 occupies a unique position in the zeitgeist. In a Hollywood landscape that can feel like it's becoming more risk-averse by the year — see our recent episode with Andrew Dewaard on his book Derivative Media — the artist-forward distributor and studio has become synonymous with a dream that, to many American cultural producers, feels increasingly remote: the conviction that one can doggedly put quality art out into the marketplace and see it actually succeed.But is A24 singlehandedly saving American cinema, or is that just a carefully crafted illusion, more a testament to the importance of smart brand positioning than to the actual quality of the films in its catalog? We brought on the Las Vegas-based writer and critic Nicholas Russell, author of an excellent essay for Dirt called “​​The Popular Alternative: the State of A24,” to discuss how the company evolved from an upstart indie film distributor to a studio and lifestyle brand in the mold of Disney — albeit one for adults who pride themselves in being savvy cultural consumers.We talk about how the company successfully commodified the idea of being “a cinephile,” the similarities between the A24 cap and the New York tote, and what Nicholas describes as the longstanding “tension between A24 the studio and A24 the startup” — one recently complicated by a $100 million cash injection from Josh Kushner's Thrive Capital, a major investor in OpenAI. We also try to break down the ineffable A24 “feel” (including the aesthetic elements and political themes the company tends to foreground, and shy away from) and consider the rise of Neon — the distributor behind movies like Parasite, Anora, and How to Blow Up a Pipeline — as the “other popular alternative.”Follow Nicholas on X and SubstackRead more by Nicholas hereRecommended reading about A24 and the Hollywood system from Nicholas:"The Life and Death of Hollywood" by Daniel Bessner (Harpers)"A24's Risky Hollywood Moment" by Felix Gillette (Bloomberg)Hollywood: The Oral History by Jeanine Basinger and Sam Wasson (Harper Collins) This is a public episode.

50% of products and features built are never used.To build the right product, every founder must answer two questions:Are you solving a real problem? And are you solving it the right way?Technology has rarely been democratic, it's often elitist. So at times, it ends up solving made-up problems that don't really exist.

A pesar de ser una edición tirando a discreta (venimos de años realmente brillantes) Cannes siempre sabe caer de pie y ofrece un palmarés lucido y consecuente que deja claro que esta edición no ha sido la de los grandes consagrados sino la de propuestas sugerentes, nuevas voces y la eficacia festivalera de cierto cine de autor. NEON se consagra y se hace por quinta vez consecutiva con la distribución en USA de la Palma de Oro que en este caso no es otra que "Anora" de Sean Baker, una comedia romántica desacomplejada que aúna humor y ternura revirtiendo en thriller mordiente de resistencia frente al clasismo social de aquellos marginados de clase trabajadora a los que siempre el director ha dignificado. Una carrera corta en títulos pero con la que Sean Baker se ha convertido en un imprescindible del cine de los últimos años entrando ahora en el olimpo de Cannes. Este reportaje pertenece al programa "El Cine de LoQueYoTeDiga" nº 437 (15x22) y fue emitido el 1 de junio de 2024.

In this episode, host Alexandra Takei, Director at Ruckus Games, sits down with Mac Reynolds, co-founder and CEO of Night Street Games and Night Street Records, and Matthew Berger, Game Director at Night Street Games. Together, they unpack the journey of building Last Flag — a zany 5v5 hero shooter with capture-the-flag at its heart and music embedded deep in its DNA. From a scrappy prototype built with an outsourced team to a 50+ person studio, they share lessons on pivoting engines, refining the core loop, and innovating within the oversaturated PC shooter market. They discuss how music shapes gameplay moments, creates immersion, and differentiates Last Flag from typical shooters — and in a first-ever moment at Naavik, we share exclusive music tracks straight from the game itself. The conversation also explores parallels between the business of music and gaming industries, what game devs can learn from music artists, and the realities of cutting through noise on Steam for a new IP.

There are No Checklists or Frameworks on HOW TO BE A VC?So how do you even know if it's the right path for you?Unlike most jobs, venture capital comes with an extremely long feedback loop. It can take years before you know whether the bets you made actually worked out. That's why most seasoned VCs say: only choose this path if you're in it for the long haul.This conversation will help you think through that choice. Whether you're considering VC as a career, love building businesses, or just want to understand who really calls the shots on a cap table.On The Neon Show, we have with us two operators turned investors:Gaurav Ranjan, Principal at Prime Venture Partners, has led deals including Dozee, Hitwikcet, Poshn and Gallabox.Naman Lahoty, Partner at Stellaris Venture Partners has been part of investments like Zouk, Nestasia, Dashtoon and Lumio.They share lessons from evaluating thousands of startups - what they've unlearned about pattern-matching in investing, why Excel projections mostly fail and why founder empathy might be the most underrated edge in venture capital.It's truly a conversation between three VCs on what it really takes to be a VC today.0:00 – Stellaris Partners X Prime Ventures0:43 – How Founders Turn Into VCs4:19 – Do VCs Need an MBA or Consulting Background?6:32 – Why Startup Projections Rarely Come True8:43 – Are VCs Naturally Good Founders?11:19 – Startups we Evaluated & Founders we Met14:51 – From First Pitch to Deal Close19:02 – Why VC Feedback Loops Are Extremely Long21:00 – No Checklists.

Vertical SaaS customers don't buy software for 10 months, they buy it for 10 years. That's the opportunity and the challenge. Switching costs are high, which makes it hard to get in but once you're in, you're in.But regular SaaS playbooks don't work here. Forget PLG. Forget design partners. These industries have been burned too many times by bad software. Here, Trust defines GTM. Think warm introductions and on-site meetings, not cold emails and Zoom calls.But for founders building in vertical SaaS, there's little to learn from. So in this episode of The Neon Show, we bring together three founders who are building in the trenches of Vertical SaaS.Omkar Patil, Co-founder of Pienomial, helping biopharma companies run faster clinical research and unlock insights from complex drug data.Kumar Siddhartha, Co-founder of Merlin, rebuilding ERP from the ground up for the US construction industry.Divyaanshu Makkar, Co-founder of WizCommerce, modernising sales and commerce tools for wholesale distributors.If you're building SaaS for niche markets or wondering why traditional playbooks are failing, this episode is for you.0:00- Pienomial X WizCommerce X Merlin0:51 – What are we building in Vertical SaaS?4:29 – Vertical SaaS buyers are sticky by nature6:57 – How to build for industries used to Below-Par Tech?10:46 – Fix what your customer hated about the last vendor12:17 – Why these industries pay billions for implementation?13:38 – How we got our First customers?20:03 – Warm intros and word-of-mouth still win23:56 – Why Design Partners don't work in Vertical SaaS?27:17 – Why you should never sell your first product for free?30:29 – Can you Co-build products with early customers?34:33 – Building Your Own Platform Vs Building on Top of one39:33 – Building alongside Legacy players or innovating around them?44:31 – SaaS isn't going anywhere, AI will amplify it46:49 – Can AI agents really be reliable?48:42 – Which roles shouldn't be automated?52:16 – How to approach GTM where users guide you?54:43 – Why trust is everything here?58:54 – How to sell softwares used for 10 years?1:01:02 – How to win when the product demo comes last?1:03:16 – Why NOW for traditional industries with unsolved problems1:09:17 – Thoughts on agentic workflows1:13:02 – Why be Bearish on the “AI Employee Concept”?1:16:57 – Rapid Fire : Google or Perplexity?1:17:37 – LLMs: Open-source or Closed?1:18:19 – Favorite work software + We're hiring!1:19:42 – One business buzzword that should disappear1:20:55 – A Vertical SaaS company we admire (and why)-------------​​India's talent has built the world's tech—now it's time to lead it.This mission goes beyond startups.

In 2024, I had the idea to produce podcasts based on interviews from MerleFest, with the theme being a focus on both first-time performers and veterans. Combining two artists who made their debuts resulted in the episode “Rural Roots That Run Deep With Nick Shoulders and Adeem The Artist”, we followed that with two of the festival's mainstays in the episode “Jim Lauderdale, Donna the Buffalo and the Many Collaborations Of MerleFest”. It was great fun to compare and contrast artist experiences at the venerated event between newcomers and returning veterans, as well as dive into their stories and music along the way. This year, I picked up on the approach once again, interviewing bluegrass heroes Woody Platt and Buddy Melton in the episode that immediately precedes this one, titled “A New Team For Two Heavy Hitters Of Bluegrass: Woody Platt and Buddy Melton”. Now, we celebrate another MerleFest newcomer, Tami Neilson. Although she just made her first stop at the festival, she is no novice in the roots music scene, having grown up in a family band and having made records since 2008; I was all smiles when I saw her on the MerleFest lineup for 2025. Fun fact: when I sent in the request to feature Tami on this podcast, her publicist replied, “So just to be clear here — Tami is for Southern Songs & Stories? She is originally Canadian and lives in New Zealand so just checking!” I chuckled and replied, “Yes, that's correct. I break my own rules every so often. I've featured Ruen Brothers, Colin Hay and others over the years. New Zealand is south too right? ;-)”I spoke with Tami Neilson late at night, after her rousing Dance Tent performance, where she talked about her love of wide ranging musical journeys, her own journey to her adopted country of New Zealand, growing up in a family band and now bringing her sons on stage from time to time, playing the Grand Ole Opry and making music with greats like Willie Nelson, and a whole lot more. Tami Neilson playing her first of two sets at MerleFest on April 25, 2025.
