How employees create wealth with their companies
Wealth creation is a journey. It doesn't behave the same way at every stage of a company. What's true at seed is irrelevant at unicorn. Hence, we've built this as an arc.
Founders from seed, growth, unicorn and decacorn, each answering for how wealth actually gets created where they're standing.
The Agenda and Speakers
💰 The ₹12,000 crore story - Building generational wealth as an employee
Sandeep Jethwani (Co-founder, Dezerv) X Binny Bansal (Co-founder, Flipkart ; Founder - Opptra)
What you'll walk away with: What founders actually reward when they hand out equity — the value you brought on day one, what you've contributed since, or the years of unglamorous work. Building Flipkart's ESOP programme with no playbook to copy, and what separated the people who compounded their payout from the ones who just had a good year.
🌱 Seed to Growth — Believing in the mission
Speakers: Magizhan Selvan, Co-founder, Namma Yatri (Val: $55 Mn) X Sandeep Jethwani X Binny Bansal
What you'll walk away with: How to read an early-stage offer: what to ask before you accept, how much salary is rationally worth trading for equity, and which promises are real versus decorative. Plus the founder's side — what you can honestly offer when the outcome is a decade away.
🦄 Growth to Unicorn — when paper wealth turns real
Speakers: Anil Goteti, Founder, Scapia (Val: $540 Mn) · X Sandeep Jethwani X Binny Bansal
What you'll walk away with: How companies decide when a buyback is the right move, and what that signal tells you about where your equity stands. The call most employees get wrong during a liquidity event: whether to exercise, and what it costs either way. And for founders — how ESOP policy should evolve as the outcome comes into view.
🚀 Unicorn to Decacorn — staying hungry when you're already rich
Speakers: Varun Khaitan, Co-founder, Urban Company (MCap: $2 Bn) X Sandeep Jethwani X Binny Bansal
What you'll walk away with: What happens to motivation when you can watch the share price move every day. The concentration risk of having your salary and your savings in the same company. And for founders — knowing when to jump the S-curve and leave for the next thing.
