InMobi will play a critical role in shaping the future.

I don't consider my competition to be companies but entrepreneurship. Entrepreneurship is the freedom to take your own decisions, and that's what we offer.

We were told that building a product company in India is impossible, as there wasn't enough talent available. But we survived, thrived, and grew despite a whole lot of frowns and thumbs down.

PC Internet advertising and mobile advertising - there are some key differences. One, the ability to target is phenomenally high in the mobile space because the information... that one has about the kinds of things that you're doing on the phone is better.

As long as you're clear about your goal, failures don't mean it's not going to work.

Advertising has always been about creating awareness. We started to question that logic. Discovery-led consumption is where we are headed. We are bringing window shopping to the mobile platform.

One of the challenges of having exceptionally high quality talent is that they're constantly restless, and they're constantly on the lookout for opportunities.

InMobi is passionate about pushing the limits of business and mobile technology.

Drying up of capital has different consequences in different environments.

The world has many very smart people who are doing interesting and different things, and there is no better way to learn than to interact with them.

Frankly, as an entrepreneur, you can do only one thing and be a part of it, but through investing in different ventures, you can be a part of something new and what others are trying to build.

When I started InMobi, I was on the road raising funds. I faced 20 rejections. But when I got the funds, they came from best venture capitalists.
