P&L on a Napkin | Bangalore Edition
Most operators understand metrics, funnel conversion, and CAC. Very few can map out where the cash actually flows when the unit economics get stress-tested.
P&L on a Napkin is a focused, low-ego working session hosted by 5to9 Club by upGrad.
Designed for product managers, growth leads, and founders who want real financial intuition without setting foot inside an executive classroom.
We take over a quiet corner of a brewery, split into small tables of 5 to 6, and deconstruct a well-known public company’s real business model on paper.
How it works:
We hand your table a one-page fact sheet and a blank worksheet with core operational figures.
45 minutes to map revenue engines, uncover hidden cost leaks, and figure out what existential risk could break the business.
An operator with background in finance, venture, or consulting sits at the room’s center to keep the math grounded and debate sharp.
Cold pours, sharp banter, and an unhurried breakdown of how businesses genuinely survive outside slide decks.
The Details:
Exact location shared upon confirmation
Entry: Free (Curated guestlist)
Cohort: Capped at 25 seats to keep table discussions dense and interactive
Come ready to argue unit economics on paper :)
