In this episode of Silicon Dreams on RadioZindagi, co-host Preethy Padmanabhan sits down with visionary entrepreneur Dheeraj Pandey—CEO of DevRev, investor, and co-founder of Nutanix—for an insightful conversation inspired by Modern Monopolies by Alex Moazed and Nicholas L. Johnson.

Widely respected for reshaping enterprise tech, Dheeraj shares his bold take on the rise of platform business models and the future of B2B innovation. He explores how APIs and developer ecosystems are driving network effects, why customers love platform monopolies, and what it takes to build lasting value in today’s digital economy.

With practical wisdom and deep strategic thinking, Dheeraj reflects on his own journey—from building Nutanix into a market leader to now bridging the gap between developers and customers at DevRev. This episode is a masterclass on building platforms with patience, purpose, and people at the center.
