Hello,

 

In today's newsletter, we will talk about:

  1. Exploring different cuisines
  2. Samir Kumar’s mandate at Amazon India
  3. Women need to embrace risks: Rohini Srivathsa
  4. Quick commerce changes festive spending
  5. Peak XV cuts largest fund by 16%

Here’s your trivia for today: What year did Jimmy Carter become President of the United States?


Startups

Exploring different cuisinesMany of us struggle to choose while ordering food online. The sheer variety of food and the number of restaurants overwhelm us so much that we end up ordering the same old dish from the same old restaurant. 

 

This is what HOGR wants to change. The Bengaluru-based food discovery platform wants people to approach food with curiosity and explore cuisines with confidence. 

 

Key takeaways:

  1. The startup helps people discover restaurants their friends have been to and connect with people with similar culinary interests. It also helps restaurant owners understand customer preferences and target a captive audience on the app. 
  2. HOGR has partnered with over 250 restaurants in Bengaluru, Kochi and Chennai and collated food and restaurant recommendations from users across the country. 
  3. Users of HOGR can log in to the app and sync up contacts on their phones to find friends and family. They can also search for food bloggers, influencers and fellow foodies and follow them for their recommendations and reviews.

New leadership, old challenges: Samir Kumar’s mandate at Amazon India

On September 30, Manish Tiwary served his last day as head of Amazon India. His departure, which was announced in early August, was like a bolt from the blue and comes at a delicate time for the e-commerce behemoth. Amazon, which has gone toe-to-toe with local rival Flipkart for e-commerce supremacy over the past decade, finds itself on the back foot in India.

 

For one, it has had to contend with an overall slowdown in the traditional e-commerce space since the end of the Covid-19 pandemic. Agile and hungry quick-commerce players, including Zomato-owned Blinkit, Swiggy’s Instamart, and Zepto, are also chipping away at its e-commerce empire.

 

Amazon India isn’t just coming under pressure from plucky domestic rivals, either. Having poured billions of dollars into growing its Indian e-commerce business, Amazon’s global leadership wants to see its Indian operation move towards profitability, something it is still a long way from achieving.

 

With Tiwari’s exit, the onus of Amazon India’s fight back now falls on Samir Kumar, who takes on the role of India country manager starting today, October 1.

 

Key takeaways:

  1. On October 1, Samir Kumar takes over as the head of Amazon India—one of the most challenging roles in Indian e-commerce
  2. He takes charge at a time when Amazon has ceded ground to rivals of all shapes and sizes, including quick-commerce players
  3. Kumar must oversee a fightback, which will include a quick-commerce-like offering, which the company is set to pilot imminently, The CapTable has learned
  4. At the same time, Kumar must steer the company towards profitability, with the e-commerce major setting an internal target of 2025 for this

Women need to embrace risks: Rohini SrivathsaRohini Srivathsa’s talk at TechSparks 2024 was more of a conversation with the audience and touched upon pertinent topics like women’s participation in the workforce, work from home for both genders and more.

 

The Chief Technology Officer at Microsoft India & South Asia, Srivathsa is a leader in the tech industry. At Microsoft, she is responsible for driving tech innovation and growth across industry and the government.

 

Equality:

  1. India’s female participation in the workforce stands at an abysmal 37%. “This means out of 100 women who are eligible to be in the workforce, only 37 are. The number is among the lowest in the world, and you will be amazed at the countries that are above India on the list. It’s not something to be proud of,” she said.
  2. Srivathsa believes change is imperative because studies (from the UN, World Economic Forum, McKinsey, Harvard and others) have shown that when women participate in the workforce, economies grow more equitably. 
  3. “There is better education, better care and sustainability. If India wants to achieve its goal of a Viksit Bharat by 2047, we need to get our act together,” she said.

Quick commerce

Quick commerce changes festive spendingQuick commerce is projected to generate $1 billion in GMV during the festival season, as consumers increasingly shift from traditional offline shopping to faster, on-demand channels, according to a research note by BofA Global Research which cited a survey done by Datum Intelligence.

 

“With increased dark stores, wider assortment, and improving popularity we expect the festive season growth to be strong for these companies (quick commerce) leading to a stronger y-o-y growth (hardly any sales last year),” the report said. 

 

Key takeaways:

  • Depending on inventory access and model availability, smartphones could become a growing category in the quick commerce space, the note said.
  • Grocery and beauty and personal care are expected to witness much faster growth compared to other categories, driven by quick commerce players.
  • While bigger players like Flipkart, Amazon, Reliance and BigBasket are looking to enter the quick commerce space, experts are unsure how they will gain traction as a wider assortment may not be a competitive advantage.

Investor

Peak XV cuts largest fund by 16%Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia Capital India) has cut the size of its largest fund by 16% as growth-stage funding to the startup ecosystem slowed down significantly over the past two years. Peak XV had earmarked nearly $2 billion for Indian companies from the fund—the largest fund dedicated by a VC for Indian startups.

 

Key takeaways:

  1. The VC firm, which raised $2.85 billion for its eighth fund in May 2022, will return about $465 million to its LPs, people aware of the matter told YourStory
  2. Peak XV will also cut the management fee it charges its LPs to 2% from 2.5% for the fund. Most VCs charge about 2% fees of the total size of the fund.
  3. The firm's decision to reduce the fund size reflects the challenges in capital deployment over the past 24 months, especially for growth and late-stage ventures, and the increasing compliance and governance issues faced by startups in India.

News & Updates

  1. Video search: Google has started rolling out a new video search feature, allowing users to find video content based on clips they capture. Users can now fire up Google Lens and record a short video of something that you want to know more about. 
  2. Fall: X, which no longer trades publicly, is worth almost 80% less than two years ago when Elon Musk bought it, according to estimates from investment giant Fidelity. Analysts say Fidelity’s plunging price tag for X likely reflects shrinking ad revenue at the company.
  3. Collab: Meta said it was expanding its Fraud Intelligence Reciprocal Exchange (FIRE) to enable UK banks to directly share information with the social media giant to help it detect and take down scamming accounts and coordinated fraud schemes.

  2. Samir Kumar’s mandate at Amazon India
  3. Women need to embrace risks: Rohini Srivathsa
  4. Quick commerce changes festive spending

Startups

Exploring different cuisinesMany of us struggle to choose while ordering food online. The sheer variety of food and the number of restaurants overwhelm us so much that we end up ordering the same old dish from the same old restaurant. 

 

This is what HOGR wants to change. The Bengaluru-based food discovery platform wants people to approach food with curiosity and explore cuisines with confidence. 

 

Key takeaways:

  1. The startup helps people discover restaurants their friends have been to and connect with people with similar culinary interests. It also helps restaurant owners understand customer preferences and target a captive audience on the app. 
  2. HOGR has partnered with over 250 restaurants in Bengaluru, Kochi and Chennai and collated food and restaurant recommendations from users across the country. 
  3. Users of HOGR can log in to the app and sync up contacts on their phones to find friends and family. They can also search for food bloggers, influencers and fellow foodies and follow them for their recommendations and reviews.

New leadership, old challenges: Samir Kumar’s mandate at Amazon India

On September 30, Manish Tiwary served his last day as head of Amazon India. His departure, which was announced in early August, was like a bolt from the blue and comes at a delicate time for the e-commerce behemoth. Amazon, which has gone toe-to-toe with local rival Flipkart for e-commerce supremacy over the past decade, finds itself on the back foot in India.

Amazon India isn’t just coming under pressure from plucky domestic rivals, either. Having poured billions of dollars into growing its Indian e-commerce business, Amazon’s global leadership wants to see its Indian operation move towards profitability, something it is still a long way from achieving.

 

With Tiwari’s exit, the onus of Amazon India’s fight back now falls on Samir Kumar, who takes on the role of India country manager starting today, October 1.

 

Key takeaways:

  1. On October 1, Samir Kumar takes over as the head of Amazon India—one of the most challenging roles in Indian e-commerce
  2. He takes charge at a time when Amazon has ceded ground to rivals of all shapes and sizes, including quick-commerce players

Quick commerce

Quick commerce changes festive spendingQuick commerce is projected to generate $1 billion in GMV during the festival season, as consumers increasingly shift from traditional offline shopping to faster, on-demand channels, according to a research note by BofA Global Research which cited a survey done by Datum Intelligence.

 

“With increased dark stores, wider assortment, and improving popularity we expect the festive season growth to be strong for these companies (quick commerce) leading to a stronger y-o-y growth (hardly any sales last year),” the report said.

Peak XV cuts largest fund by 16%Peak XV Partners (formerly Sequoia Capital India) has cut the size of its largest fund by 16% as growth-stage funding to the startup ecosystem slowed down significantly over the past two years.

Key takeaways:

  1. The VC firm, which raised $2.85 billion for its eighth fund in May 2022, will return about $465 million to its LPs, people aware of the matter told YourStory
  2. Peak XV will also cut the management fee it charges its LPs to 2% from 2.5% for the fund. Most VCs charge about 2% fees of the total size of the fund.

The Rise Of A Parallel Government

The United States is on the brink of a major shift in its political landscape. As the existing regime continues to struggle with internal divisions, external threats, and a general loss of trust from the American people, a parallel government is emerging, led by a coalition of influential figures from both the public and private sectors.

As the dust settles on one of the most devastating natural disasters in our nation’s history, millions of Americans are left without power, homes, and loved ones. Entire towns have been demolished, leaving a trail of destruction that will take years to repair. In the face of such tragedy, one would hope for a swift and compassionate response from our federal government. However, it appears that compassion and swift action are not the priorities of our leaders, as they continue to send our hard-earned tax dollars overseas while Americans suffer.

Just when we thought things couldn’t get any worse, the federal government announced a mere $2 million in emergency relief to North Carolina, a state reeling from the aftermath of this catastrophic hurricane. Meanwhile, on the same day, they announced that they were sending $157 million dollars to Lebanon to clean up Israel’s mess. It’s hard to fathom how our government can prioritize sending aid to another country when so many of our own citizens are in desperate need.

But this isn’t the first time our tax dollars have been sent overseas while Americans struggle. Just a week earlier, in late September, it was announced that $8.7 billion dollars in aid was being sent to Israel. This is a country that has consistently shown its disregard for human life and peace in the region, and yet we continue to pour our resources into supporting them, because well, to be blunt, they own our politicians.

The Regime’s recent actions are a continuation of a longstanding pattern of hypocrisy and double standards. This same disparity was evident over the past three and a half years, as working-class Americans faced rising inflation and struggled to provide for their families. Meanwhile, the government prioritized and lavishly funded foreign wars and interventions in Ukraine and Israel, diverting precious resources away from the needs of the American people. This disconnect between the ruling class and the masses underscores a systemic failure to prioritize and address the genuine concerns of everyday citizens.

In light of this behavior from our government, a parallel government has been rising up.

If you’ve been paying attention at all Donald Trump has been acting as the President of this parallel government since he left office. He continues to meet with heads of state, dominate the news cycle, and influence policy decisions as if he were already the sitting President.

Further justifying this, there are tens of millions of Americans who believe the 2020 election was stolen and continue to view him as the President. This is a clear indication that the American people no longer trust the current regime to lead the nation. Trump’s leadership style, coupled with his commitment to putting America first, has earned him the support of tens of millions of citizens who yearn for a government that truly represents the will of the people.

In the private sector Elon Musk’s efforts to provide disaster relief are another example of how private individuals and organizations are stepping up to fill the gaps left by the federal government. Musk’s innovative solutions and unwavering dedication to helping those in need have demonstrated that the private sector can play a crucial role in addressing the challenges faced by our society.

In many ways, we now live in two separate countries, each with its own distinct culture, language, and values. The first is the traditional homeland of heritage Americans, rooted in centuries of history and shared cultural heritage. The second is a rapidly growing entity, populated by tens of millions of foreigners who have settled both legally and illegally in the United States, often with little regard for the customs and traditions of the native population. This division has significant implications for the future of our nation, and it is crucial that we recognize and address it before it is too late.

The idea of a parallel government is not new, but its implementation in the United States is unprecedented. Traditionally, parallel governments have been formed in response to political, economic, or social crises, with the aim of providing alternative governance structures to those in place. In this case, the existing regime’s inability to address the nation’s pressing challenges has created a vacuum that the parallel government is poised to fill.

The parallel government is not seeking to overthrow the existing regime, but rather to provide an alternative form of governance that addresses the needs and concerns of the American people. If anything this is the free market responding to and filling a critical need. As the existing regime continues to struggle, the parallel government is well-positioned to fill the vacuum and provide a fresh start for the nation. The future of the United States may very well be shaped by this new paradigm, marking the beginning of a new era of leadership and governance.

As states continue to realize that the federal government not only abandons them but actively undermines their efforts to thrive, they are increasingly seeking alternative sources of support and collaboration. This shift towards self-reliance and local control is a positive development that will ultimately lead to a more resilient and prosperous nation, but time will tell how this will unfold. It is unlikely that the current Regime will go down without a fight, but we will pray for the peaceful transition of power as one Regime falls and a new one takes its place.

In a world where the existing regime has proven itself to be unreliable and untrustworthy, it is no surprise that citizens are turning to alternative sources of support and leadership. This trend towards a parallel government is a natural response to the failures of the current system and a sign that the American people are ready for a new era of self-reliance.

It’s time for a change. It’s time for our government to put the needs of American citizens first. We cannot continue to watch as our tax dollars are sent overseas while our own people suffer. It’s a slap in the face to every hardworking American who has ever paid their taxes and expected their government to have their best interests at heart.

May God have mercy on our country.
