True. The people around you matter a lot. The other point about getting a few people to invest in you is about growing your network. In India, its an open secret that VCs do not fund with out the venture being recommended by somebody they trust or value. @keki. Its true, there are few examples in India of companies making it big quickly. I can barely think of any companies shooting up in the recent decades, other than the IT powerhouses. @Maverick. True.

Even infosys and fortune group had to wait for long period of time struggling to sustain it and it was long time after that they made the big buck. what say? hey nice post…

You should have a few people who beleive in you and then a few more people who can invest with you and then those who keep supporting you. But then those people dont pre-exist. You have to win them on ur own. I think insecurity is the main reason.
