#CFThursday session on “Security Entrepreneurship” with Samrendra Kumar

June 3, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm IST

One of the most talked-about programs, CyberFrat Thursday allows us to present weekly opportunities to our members to learn from guest speakers over engaging webinars. The topics of discussion range from emerging technologies, cybersecurity trends, and risk management to several developmental elements such as grooming, motivation, resume writing, interview tips, and general soft skills. This Thursday we will have a session on “Security Entrepreneurship” with Samrendra Kumar.

What will be covered?

  • Our world is changing rapidly. It took telephone 75 years to reach 50 million users; Radio – 38 years; Internet – 4 years, Facebook – less than 3 years. Instagram, Youtube, WhatsApp, and Twitter reached the milestone in less than 2 years. Angry Birds space app took 35 days, and Pokemon Go only 19 days.
  • The nature of businesses is changing – from piped models to platforms; new-age businesses are asset-light, data-heavy, and algorithmically inspired.
  • Security is a great field to be in.
  •  My entrepreneurial journey: from humble beginnings to now (working across 25 countries, with more than 50 of the top 100 global corporations).

Entrepreneurial Learnings (MitKat Mantras)

  • Fail fast; keep learning cost low
