Building a startup often means navigating uncertainty, tough decisions, and constant iteration. The difference between surviving and scaling usually lies in learning from those who have already walked the path.
SPOTLIGHT by PedalStart is a curated founder mentorship session designed to bring early-stage builders into a room with an experienced founder-operator who has built, scaled, and navigated the realities of the startup journey.
For this edition, we are hosting Sharath Loganathan, Co-Founder of Ninjacart , one of India’s most successful agritech supply chain platforms, connecting 800k+ farmers and 100k+ retailers across 120+ Indian cities, and expanding its trade network across 20+ countries.
The session will be interactive, candid, and mentorship-led, giving founders the opportunity to engage directly with someone who has built and scaled a startup in one of India’s most complex sectors.
What Founders Can Expect?
During the session, founders will explore:
* Building a startup from zero to scale in complex markets
* Navigating product-market fit and early pivots
* Designing go-to-market strategies that actually work
* Scaling operational infrastructure without breaking the system
* Expanding startups into global markets and partnerships
The format encourages open conversation, founder questions, and practical insights drawn from real experience rather than theory.
Who Should Attend?
This session is designed for:
* Early-stage founders and startup builders
* Operators exploring their first venture
* Founders preparing for scale or market expansion
* Startup teams navigating product, GTM, or operational challenges
If you are actively building a company and want to learn directly from someone who has built, rebuilt, and scaled globally, this session will offer valuable perspective.
