For eight years, @Zetwerk, you’ve been turning the biggest of ideas into reality.
And in that spirit, we thought we’d introduce you to prototypes of the future from your toughest customers yet.
After all, most inventions start with a child asking, “What if?”
Congratulations on your IPO, Zetwerk. We can’t wait to see what you make next.

India has a trillion-dollar retail market,
but only 2% is penetrated by e-commerce!
There is a reason for this.
Traditional E-commerce players in India are built for the urban consumer. However, the urban consumer only makes up about 30% of India’s population. This means that the remaining 70% (980 Million people) are underserved by these e-commerce players.
In an interview with SeedToScale, @KiklaAngad (Co-Founder and CEO of @CityMall_in) breaks down a five-step playbook to crack e-commerce for Bharat.

It’s heartening that @accelindia is putting its faith in the Bharat opportunity for startups, across rural India and Tier 2 and 3 cities. It’s worth noting that the top 20% of the rural population has a higher Monthly Per Capita Expenditure than ~50% of the urban population.
India's next startup boom is brewing in Bharat.
The rise of startups catering to the Bharat opportunity is imminent. It will be a long and patient journey, but it is inevitable according to @Accel's @_AnandDaniel and @SaSarthaksingh, who define Bharat as the middle-income households in the INR 5L-15L bracket spread across Tier 2, 3, and rural India.
Startups that can deliver exceptional value tailored to Bharat’s regional dynamics, at the right price points, have a significant opportunity. Companies tailored to Bharat such as Meesho, PW (PhysicsWallah), and Zudio are just the beginning; many more are yet to emerge, say Daniel and Singh.
Several large companies can emerge from the following sectors in the next decade:
1. E-commerce companies building efficient supply chains and the right customer experience.
2. Financial services that solve for underserved Bharat consumers and businesses
3. Rural healthcare services that make healthcare accessible and affordable for users
4. Edtech, upskilling & recruitment platforms to meet educational and employment needs
5. Upcoming brands for Bharat built for large consumer categories
6. Content platforms for Bharat
7. Consumer companies for Bharat leveraging AI

The next wave of disruption will come from daring builders catering to the needs of the top 30% of households in rural Bharat, says @_AnandDaniel, partner @Accel.
Some interesting insights from his recent interaction with @PTI_News:
> Rural spend is highly concentrated; 52% of rural consumption comes from the top 30% of households.
> By 2030, this top 30% segment will display an annual spend of ~$540B.
> This segment spends over $10B annually in each of 12 categories (5 food and 7 non-food).
