I loved the careful transition of the podcast from self work to entrepreneurial work then towards public work. Not being a tech guy myself, I fully enjoyed the conversation muzammil. During the last 2 months when you were absent, my drives to and back from office were so lull and boring. Thank you for the deep insightful conversations and keep up the great work and service you are doing
I had no idea about the artistic background of Shehryar Hydri since I know him from the VC space. Being a hobbyist game developer myself, I could resonate with his journey a lot. Another amazing podcast.

Keep up brother...this is exactly the content we all need out there...one of the best channels I subscribed to...plz leap going....
Finally someone is talking about Salesforce. Even just one word. Being in Salesforce eco system, I can see issues related to the IT industry in general and more specifically the demand crisis in salesforce based companies. Do receive lots of calls/mails with crazy offers, but even at individual level I can see that this is not a sustainable situation.
Thank you Muzamil bhai These kind of conversations keeps our hope alive about this country.

I was from early TECH team of Roomy, worked as a Data Scientist there.
Great Podcast. Pls pls Round 2 with Shery ❤
Two hours well spent. It's always amazing listening to Shahriar. But the way this podcast was very insightful.
Starting wali to meri story ha lol I wanted to go Art school for Advertising because I wanted to ignore accounting, AND I did get into Advertising program of Indus (best design school in Karachi) then realized I'm not heavily creative so transferred my program to BBA Hons and enjoying the "management/anlytical" side of advertising/marketing/branding.
Insightful

India got lucky (or worked hard) to bring major US companies offices after 9 11 into india, such as, Dell, HP, Google, Yahoo, Palo Alto, Apple, Facebook, Verizon, AT&T, Lucent, Amazon, ... and many many more companies (mostly IT work). This the reason of today's shinning india, nothing self generated all imported. Sorry to say but Indian market is today's African slaves for US. But yet, at the end, india generated the jobs for their local population through this process. Pakistan got nothing like india. Pakistan is building from ground which will be slow process but will reach to top as always reach top whatever they start.
