4/16/2024
About Simran Khara: My next guest on The One Percent Project is the charismatic Simran Khara, the founder and CEO of Koparo. Simran talks about her Journey: From McKinsey to Entrepreneurship. She has an MBA from the Indian School of Business and is an alumnus of the London School of Economics and Shri Ram College of Commerce. With over 16 years of experience, she has advised, built, and monetized in her roles at McKinsey & Co, Star TV, and Juggernaut Books. Now, she is building Koparo, a D2C toxin-free home-care brand. In this conversation, Simran talks about the importance of discipline, adaptability, and social skills that she imbibed growing up in a Faugy Family, the liberating environment Mumbai offers to women, her role at Star TV and what she gathered from her mentor, Uday Shankar, becoming the CEO of Jaggaurnat Books, building Koparo, the impact of being featured on Shark Tank India, and much more. This conversation inspired me to kick off a series on "First Time Founders", where I will invite young and experienced entrepreneurs who will help share their journey of building a business with no prior entrepreneurial experience.
