Why Desi Disrupt


Desi: a word that is used to describe the people, cultures, and products of the Indian subcontinent (specifically India, Pakistan, Bangladesh) and their diaspora.

Disrupt: refers to a company or form of technology that causes radical change in an existing industry or market by means of innovation.

We built Desi Disrupt because we believe in the need for South Asians to be given a platform to better inform, inspire, and contribute to the tech and finance ecosystem.
