Have you read Exponential Organizations by Salim Ismail?

In this book, Salim details why companies like Uber, Airbnb, and Facebook were incredibly successful.

By Salim’s definition of being an exponential entrepreneur, I wouldn’t say that I am one. Why?

I’m not willing to take external funds to burn and experiment with.

Think silicon valley companies that have zero revenue, but spend millions on experimentation.

Listen to my full explanation here.

Cybersecurity is an underestimated danger.

Misleading commercials of the OEMs about autonomous vehicles is dangerous.

The gap between people and their understanding of technology still happens today.

Do you know the difference between an entrepreneur and a successful entrepreneur?

An entrepreneur will just move on from their failure.

Successful entrepreneurs will learn from their failures and move forward with those lessons.

Failing doesn’t make you a bad entrepreneur.

Is there a good crypto algorithm?

My colleague, Akshay Kumar, posed this question to me.

There is no such thing as the best crypto algorithm in general - it depends on the context.

When you’re choosing an algorithm, you need to think about….

✔️ The computational power you have

✔️ The memory size

✔️ Timing requirements

✔️ Security requirements

Immigration can be beneficial to countries.

As a result, companies can diversify.

I myself am an immigrant.

And, most of the employees at Matrickz GmbH have a migration background.

If immigration wasn’t possible, I believe Matrickz wouldn’t be possible.

My colleague, Vikashini Gopalakrishnan, posed a fascinating question to me…

Would a driver monitoring mechanism help drivers stay alert?

My answer - absolutely.

We already have various mechanisms that can accomplish this.

Acoustic alerts

Movement alerts

Automated emergency brake takes over

If the driver is needed, all of these are necessary.

When building a company, you need to be flexible.

You can not be emotionally attached to one idea, technology, or industry.

As a leader, you should do whatever it takes to accomplish the company mission.

What do we need to do to change the world?

What do we need to do to have a positive impact?

Does our goal have to equate to magnitude? Absolutely not.

I admire all entrepreneurs.

Raghavendra Lokesha, my colleague, asked me who in the entrepreneurship space I admired.

To name a few….

Gary Vaynerchuk

Jeff Bezos

Warren Buffet

Bill Gates

Elon Musk

All of these people have done so much that there are many things to learn.

But, the truth is...I admire all entrepreneurs.

People who woke up and said, “I want to live life on my terms.”

Not only do they take responsibility for themselves, but also for their family, and the people they employ.

In the automotive industry, we have two important pillars-safety and security.

My colleague, Akshay Kumar, posed this interesting question - which is more important?

Security loopholes can cause safety issues.

Right now, I don’t think we can differentiate security from safety, especially when it comes to cybersecurity.

My colleague, Lucas van Zuylen, posed this very fascinating question to me.

I would like to look at an example for this…

Around 2050, the majority of the United States population is projected to not be white or African American. The majority is projected to be Asian.

It’s the first time in mankind where this will happen in a large country.

Now, in 2220, I think it is dependent on the governments.

In my opinion, I think Europe has to facilitate immigration.
