A serial entrepreneur, Pawar shares his views regarding the success of startup ventures, “The startup space is bustling with activity – some fresh entrants in the space; some with past experience of being an entrepreneur. As a serial entrepreneur, over the years, I have observed that those who enter the startup space with past experience bring to the table key learnings, especially in areas like finance, funding, personal brand image, people management…to name a few, and thereby more likely to succeed in their subsequent ventures. I was recently reading an article which echoed the same opinion. However, there are also numerous examples who have struck big in their first venture itself.”
