When India delivers 10 minutes of chips and shampoo, Saberi Bhatia asks that several questions dare. What is the meaning? The co-founder of Hotmail, which speaks in Bengaluru, has directly slipped the country’s fast trade craze and the burning investors. “Do not fund the next food delivery company,” he said, saying the absence of real innovation with immediate satisfaction.
