E100 - Building a Public Company w/Policybazaar's Yashish Dahiya

In this Episode, I (@Jivraj Singh Sachar) speak with Yashish Dahiya, Founder of Policybazaar.

Policybazaar is India’s largest distributor of Insurance policies. Started in 2008, Policybazaar is one of the few new-age Indian companies to successfully list and go public on India’s stock exchange.

Going public is a coveted feat, dreamt by each founder when starting up and Policybazaar’s journey provides a lot of inspiration to the entire ecosystem. Through this conversation we decode much of how Yashish & team made it happen.

We also further discuss Yashish’s personal journey of being an ardent sports enthusiast, a fitness lover, an iron man competitor and his motto of perseverance in achieving excellence all throughout his life when getting into the IIT, IIM, INSEAD and weathering the storms of the recession.

This is the 100th Episode and it is an absolute honour to have a man of Yashish’s aura & stature for this much awaited event.

I would also like to take a moment to thank all of you listening and supporting the show in any & every way. This journey of creating a 100 episodes has been the most beautiful thing I have embarked upon and none of it would be possible with you all tuning in.

This one is incredibly special, let’s dive into the 100th Episode of the Indian Silicon Valley Podcast with Yashish of Policybazaar.
