Draper Startup House Podcast
by Ajay Prakash
This is a one of a kind podcast that will take you a mile in the shoes of different people across the world. We all feel lost and unsure of where we want to go or what we want to do. Together by learning from people who have done different things, we can discover what we like and move forward. I’m your host, Ajay Prakash, a serial entrepreneur, and I’ve gone through product, marketing, theoretical physics, development and several other roles to figure out my passion. I’m still figuring it out and hopefully, together we can learn and discover new opportunities. CONNECT. INSPIRE. EMPOWER.
