Software product think tank iSPIRT has designed a programme where Stanford and Duke University researchers would help founders of 200 hyper growth companies to plan ahead and implement the learnings in their organizations. The aim of the exercise is to inspire Indian startups to be global category leaders."We want them to become category leaders by making them think about future problems today," said Sharad Sharma, cofounder of iSpirt. "Because for a category leader, conversion rates are much higher than the number 2 or 3 players."
The three-day retreat and conference would start this January where the 200 founders would begin their day with yoga and end it late night with brainstorming on strategies to supercharge their companies. The researchers are funding this programme through grants amounting to $57,000 (Rs 37 lakhs) endowed by their universities.
"Anyone who sees the technology sector sees that the best pool of technical talent comes from India. But they are all working for American companies," said Sharique Hasan, associate professor of organisational behaviour at Stanford University.
The goal of this programmed is to nail concepts of management into developing countries.
