growing in life, technology and businesses

Nirav Mehta

I'm a parallel entrepreneur, and I like technology as much as I like business. I started at 13 selling model rocket kits, launched India's first electronic magazine at 19, and founded a web company at 20. The agency went down in 2009 and I was asked to exit the company I had built. Everything I run now came after that.

Today that's Icegram, StoreApps, Putler and Leapven. I've been writing here since 2005: about building and running businesses, the craft of software, and the things I'm still working out.
