Mr. Raju Vegesna – Chief Evangelist at Zoho Corporation, Indian Multinational tech company that makes business software and web-based business tools.

In this Telugu Podcast episode, we uncovered how a global tech company- Zoho was built without external funding, without debt, and without stepping away from its roots. Headquartered in a quiet Tamil Nadu village, yet operating Globally and selling to over 180 countries, this story challenges everything we think we know about where innovation happens.

We explore why setting up offices in rural India wasn’t just a business decision, it was a belief system. Most colleges today act like vacuum cleaners, pulling students from villages and pushing them into overwhelmed cities. In contrast, this vision focuses on rebuilding India from the ground up, investing in the soil before chasing the spotlight. You'll hear about how Zoho lost 400 clients and still didn’t take on debt. How a school dropout and a security guard were trained to become software engineers. How culture is treated like an operating system, not an afterthought. From launching Zoho Writer before Google Docs to rejecting acquisition offers from giants like Salesforce, it’s a journey of conviction, patience, and clear direction.

This conversation also goes beyond business. It touches on the forgotten self-confidence of a post-colonial nation, the hunger found in those from humble backgrounds, and the need for India to build its own Microsofts, not just serve the West’s. With AI and robotics on the horizon, it raises one powerful question: can the next global revolution begin in a village?

Aspiring entrepreneur? or looking for motivation & inspiration, This is for you; bootstrapped success, building from Bharat, and creating global impact with long-term vision, staying grounded and confident.
