QUOTES

Going on a series of conversations trying to understand how things are - Indus: "It had not cemented in me how big SaaS was going to be back then but we were watching it at Bitzer and we had a portion of the product that was SaaS."

What allowed Indus to push through on the work they were doing - Indus: "The only thing that makes you successful is perseverance. This is after doing Bitzer for three and a half years, attempting a few other start-ups, and seeing founders succeed and fail. Ideas and people come and go but if you persist on what the world needs, you will succeed."
