Umm you’ve made me curious about what you’ve learnt about building at scale after your Fb Lumis experience! Can we talk about that please!?

Nothing teaches you how to scale better than a platform that is building for 3Billion people i.e. Facebook. My role at FB involved working very closely with the Product & Engg teams at FB which is how I was able to understand building for scale. Lumis Partners helped me see the growth of their portfolio companies, map their journeys & roadmap for 3-5 years hence, which was a great learning experience too to understand both from scaling & investing perspective. Hope this helps. :)

Sounds great!

Still why does the Lumis experience sound richer than the other to me? Probably because I am assuming that you've seen products rise from a more nascent stage than fb where it had already did the initial scaling. I might be wrong. Educate me, if so. :)

Here's a situation for you:

Suppose I am intending to build a product, or am just a product enthusiast and I have a prototype in my hand, and I believe the app we building, is a must have for every Indian. How do I get my first 1k, 10k, 100k downloads?
