We are a non-profit think tank that builds public goods for Indian product startups to thrive and grow. iSPIRT aims to do for Indian startups what DARPA or Stanford did in Silicon Valley. To transform India into a hub for new generation software products, it is crucial to address government policy, create market catalysts and grow the maturity of product entrepreneurs. An integrative approach is fundamental and vital. Since the stakes are high and the industry is 
moving very fast, a reactive ivory tower 
approach cannot succeed. In addition to 
top-down policy recommendations, the 
hive mind of the industry must be leveraged
to support conversations for 
grassroots involvement and actions. 
David Weinberger said it most aptly: the 
smartest person in the room is now the room. With this context in mind, about 30 product 
companies and individuals have joined hands 
to form iSPIRT – the Indian Software 
Product Industry Roundtable. iSPIRT builds four types of public goods – technology building blocks (aka India stack), startup-friendly policies, market access programs like M&A Connect and Playbooks that codify scarce tacit knowledge for product entrepreneurs of India.
