Hook:

Are you a tech founder sidelined in the startup game?

You’re not alone.

Let’s talk about why many tech experts aren’t stepping into the limelight, even though they should be.

While India graduates millions of engineers, the founding teams are still heavily business-oriented.

Engineers are often relegated to the background, missing out on leadership roles.

This imbalance hurts product quality and growth.

Takeaway:

Founders must treat technical leaders as equals.

If we don’t fix this, the best minds will look elsewhere for fulfillment.
