Live Blogging Guy Kawasaki at the NASSCOM PRODUCT CONCLAVE at the Lalit Bangalore
Live Blogging Guy Kawasaki at the NASSCOM PRODUCT CONCLAVE at Hotel Lalit, Bangalore. I am Glad to be the Official Blogger again for the conference.
There surely is nothing better than listening to Guy Kawasaki right in the morning. This surely is one of the best ever presentations I have seen. Guy is absolutely straight on with his words and well, this is the language of a true entrepreneur.
Full of experience and energy. Guy is givin some real interesting concepts and right now is speaking about one of the very many points in his presentations, which says:
1. forget venture captial
“the role of the VC is to help you expand, to scale, to expand to new opportunities and NOT to start”
And now we have a million dollar slide being shared by Guy! Well as he says, you guys all in this room are already cash flow positive and wallah, this slide is surely a million dollars. Here goes all the management school education in one slide!
“Marketing is really easy” all you need to do is to create a unique product!
You need to get up everyday thinking how is our software valuable to a certain group of people and that’s where I say the action is. Unique products have great value!
Bozossity!
Well, I personally am very excited in bringing forth this very new term, for the first time at the NASSCOM EMERGE blog.
As an entrepreneur, you need to understand this. There are two kinds of Bozos in the world: with dandruff, odour, lousy tee, lousy Japanese car etc…(and the whole room laughs)
But that’s not the dangerous Bozo. Zaps Guy!
The dangerous Bozo is dressed in all black, swiss watch, Armani, ambhorgini…Beware of the people that end in ‘i’ “.
The rich and famous often most of the times are lucky and may not really be smart. Bozossity is just like Flu. I have to give you some Bozossity today so that when you really face it, you have resistance.
Guy now shares some real interesting sayings which people have remarked upon since times immemorial.
Its too far to drive, and I dont see how it can be a business – Guy Kawasaki
Guy slams, bangs, and well, I today realize why people love him for what he is!
In the US – Im an Asian American minority, and you cannot fire minorities. Im am Japanese American, and you cannot fire me.
“I too was a aBozo” I sacrificed my personal reputation which proved don’t go to the Bozo strategy.
Guy now introduces several platforms where entrepreneurs can get some real good and interesting insights from.
- India.alltop
- Startups.alltop
- Innovaton.alltop
Guy ends the talk with a smiling audience and well we have a sweet surprise, a twitter DEMO at 7:30 tonight!that’s where I say the action is. Unique product has great value!

I had the opportunity of hearing Guy once in CA and again in Mumbai in 2004, you have captured his impecable style of conveying the punch with a dash of humor in true sense. Great job Paritosh.
