About What the HAT!?

We are three friends who met in our engineering college catching up with our old friends and acquaintances in this show. 

Each guest has a different journey, different story, and different insights.  We are connecting and learning from people who have carved their journeys from creating funded startups in India to key roles in big companies. We are talking to people who went to Ivy League colleges and are academicians in India. We are working on gathering stories from these great minds. 

This is the podcast for you if you are currently pursuing or have completed engineering. If you haven't studied engineering, this podcast is still for you, as we will dwell deep into various industries and sectors such as finance, technology, supply chain, manufacturing, chemical, education, and a lot more. 

Each journey is inspiring. Each story gives you an opportunity to learn something new.

Extraordinary insights from not so ordinary people.
