Just two months into my role at SaaSBoomi, I found myself not only saying yes to my first team offsite, but genuinely excited for it. From heartfelt letters to jungle safaris, what unfolded in Kabini was more than bonding; it was belonging. In a team where kindness is culture and remote never feels distant, I knew I had found my place.
A few days ago, we had one of those rare pauses – an internal team session with Shekhar Kirani (Partner at Accel) that had us looking at our work through a new lens. And personally, it felt like someone had gently nudged me out of my comfort zone and asked: How am I really showing up in this role?
I settled onto the sofa with a hot mug of black coffee and opened my inbox. There it was!

I heard him before I saw him. That’s the best way I can describe the first time I met Prasanna Krishnamoorthy. This story starts about a dozen years ago, when Prasanna was associated with Microsoft Accelerator. At the time, he was known to the startup community as a founder who had pivoted to nurturing startups […]

Penned by Z47 x SaaSBoomi. In January 2020, just as the world stood on the brink of a global pandemic, Vignesh Girishankar made a rare and difficult call. He turned down term sheets from top-tier VCs for his new idea. “We’ll come back when we’ve thought this through.” Vignesh, co-founder and Chief Product Officer at Rocketlane, told investors. It wasn’t his first high-stakes call.

Ever been thrown into the deep end with no playbook, no step-by-step guidance, and barely a moment to catch your breath? It’s frustrating. It’s stressful. At times, it feels like you’re drowning. But here’s the thing—somehow, you learn to swim.
Looking back now, one thing is clear: no single person can truly claim ownership over the magic of a flagship event like that. The applause and appreciation have been generous, and rightly so. Still, what we built, we built together.
Jagah Code of Conduct
I’ve often heard people use the expression “learn from your mistakes.” It’s really valuable, but I am going to offer up a new one: learn from your successes. Often, we celebrate a win but don’t examine the reasons behind it. We ignore the reasons for success, especially the quiet, unseen roles others played in it. […]
My hunch proved accurate when I finally met her in Chennai at our volunteer lunch a few months later. She had instinctively taken up roles where she was helping people at the event. It may have been her first time at that meeting, but she glided effortlessly across the room when talking to people.
