A lot has happened between January and March. โ˜บ๏ธ Started the year apprehensive - on the night of 31st December while everyone was making merry and welcoming the new year, I was holed up in my study at home - watching videos, writing essays, making videos and a financial model - all were part of the latest batch of assignments in the Techstars selection process and the deadline was midnight.

It will take another cycle of this and one more interview for us to hear the good news we were waiting for. We got into Techstars! It has been the ride of a lifetime since. Learning, unlearning, relearning. Meeting life-changing mentors and networking with some of the most brilliant persons in the tech space.

For Q2, we are going to war with everything weโ€™ve been armed with. We will pilot LocumDoc in select hospitals in the UK ๐Ÿ‡ฌ๐Ÿ‡ง with the goal of saving them thousands of pounds monthly and cutting their waiting lines. We will contribute our own quota to fixing healthcare - one small hospital at a time.

What to expect? More knocking on doors. If you are a service manager or key decision maker in a hospital in the UK, expect me. โ˜บ๏ธ More conversations with our customers - their feedback is what we build into our product. More value created for our doctor network.

Q2 is one of my favourite quarters of the year. Why? The birthdays of my three children fell in it. ๐Ÿฅฐ It is also that quarter that helps you recalibrate and can set the tone for the rest of the year. Youโ€™ve learnt from the mistakes of Q1 and you still have the time runway to bear fruit.

It is a new month. ๐ŸŽ‰

This message rang true for me last night during a Techstars Health event in the Bay Area. I was happy to discuss LocumDoc and the problem we are solving in healthcare with several mentors, legal and VC interests.

Just by being in the tech capital of the world, we have met so many helpful persons - mentors, guides, advisers - who have taken our journey as their own and are sharing their knowledge and network so generously just to see us win. We are deeply grateful and remain committed to end the long waiting lines by solving for acute doctor shortages.

The mentality at ๐“๐ž๐œ๐ก๐ฌ๐ญ๐š๐ซ๐ฌ is what makes it the best startup accelerator in the world. Happy to be part of this community and will definitely pay it forward. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝโค๏ธ

๐‹๐š๐ฌ๐ญ ๐ฐ๐ž๐ž๐ค, I heard an analogy that captures exactly what building a startup feels like. โ€œIt is like jumping off a cliff and trying to assemble a plane before you hit the ground. If you succeed, you mount your plane and fly away to safety. If you fail, you hit the ground and perish.โ€

So, why do people do it? Choose uncertainty over certainty? My guess is - these persons are addicted to problem-solving in addition to being avid risk-takers. Building a business is a high-risk, high reward situation.

Knowledge and market research can help mitigate that risk, but not remove it. Funding can buy you some time to assemble your plane mid-air. But ultimately, generating revenue consistently and turning a sizeable profit is what gives you wing to fly.

Dear entrepreneur, keep building. Keep pushing.

Excited to announce that LocumDoc has been accepted into Techstars, the worldโ€™s most active pre-seed investor and a leading accelerator program.

As part of the Spring โ€˜24 cohort, Sanjith and I will be learning how to build a truly global health-tech company from the amazing team at Techstars.

Special thanks to our ๐‹๐จ๐œ๐ฎ๐ฆ๐ƒ๐จ๐œ team, the hospitals and doctors in the UK, friends and family and everyone who has been part of our journey. This is for you. ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝโค๏ธ
