As India celebrates 78 years of independence, the “Made in India” movement is making its mark globally, with Indian startups challenging established industries across the globe. Just as Elon Musk has revolutionised electric vehicles in America, Bhavish Aggarwal is leading a similar charge with Ola in India.
“Tesla is for the West, Ola is for the Rest,” resonated Aggarwal, at its annual flagship event, Sankalp 2024, where the company highlighted its achievements and outlined plans for the coming years.
Aggarwal emphasised three factors to drive the vision for the company — Youth, Dream, and Future.
As Ola races to join the ranks of top global players, it’s hard to ignore the resemblance between Aggarwal and the world’s wealthiest man, Elon Musk.
