The first meeting of Growth99 in Bangalore was a small yet significant gathering of four initial members: Our CTO, Prassana, Chanakya, and Shyamala. The meeting, which lasted roughly an hour, was held on January 31, 2020, at Barbeque Nation in Bangalore. While discussing the company’s objectives and vision, the group had personal discussions. Although it was only a brief meeting, it served as the starting point for Growth99’s adventure, and the conversations and relationships established there laid the groundwork for what the firm would eventually become.
