So when none existed, I created my own.
Offline is a network you can lean on, a place for real conversations — Like when the right time to exit a company and what clauses to watch out for while signing big contracts — where your growth takes center stage. A community that bolsters you through your lows and cheers you on from day one.
This is where you’ll want to belong.
The journey of a founder can be a tireless, obsessive and invigorating one. One in which the drive of a mad scientist pushes you to go your own way. And when you find yourself on that road not taken, you look for your tribe.
When I started my first company in 2016, I knew there had to be others out there like me. Founders excited by change and looking for real connections. But I didn't find them at the same old networking events I was endlessly invited to, where the same 10 panellists expounded on the same garden-variety topics to the same 150 people, ad nauseam. Crowded rooms by day, and echo chambers by night.
I wanted to belong to a founder community where innovation-hungry founders were handpicked to be part of something that was experiential and additive.Where thinking out of the box was applauded and founders could express themselves fearlessly.
our values
Commitment is
in our DNA
When you give Offline your 100%, you get that and more back. We highly encourage you to make your monthly pods, quarterly events, and digital community a priority and show up for all of them.
Growing fast
and slow
‘How can I help?’ is our favourite ice-breaker. So keep an eagle eye out for opportunities to learn, share generously, and never stop striving for collective growth.
Great minds
think Offline
No matter your gender, culture, or beliefs, if you’ve got a burning desire to flip the status quo, we’d like nothing more than to go Offline with you.
We’re bound by
the founder code
There’s a reason why our monthly pod sessions are called 'Off the record'. Each member signs a strict privacy pledge that mandates explicit permission to share any information outside the network.
High stakes
High standards
Striving towards your personal and professional growth is a non-negotiable at Offline. Expect executive coaching on leadership and ethics to crop up regularly on your calendar.
Offline’s mission is to create a hyper-curated, honest, and deeply engaging space for the top 10% of India’s tech founders and CEOs — one member, one pod, and one event at a time.
