Vasishta Chary

My path has taken me from launching startups to leading a book-lover community with Thybookbox and advising startups with Headstart.
I distill this journey, emphasizing community building, into the Community Threads newsletter and Unscripted Tales podcast.

Let me tell you... The journey has neither been as short, nor, as easy as it took me to drop these lines here.

In 10+ years of my professional journey, I've lived in three cities, founded two startups, and engaged with numerous ecosystems, connecting with a wide array of individuals and ideas and building a network of thousands. From Designing systems and productivity to designing strategies for community and GTM, I love immersing myself in the ebbs and flows of launching and positioning products.

As the founder of Thybookbox, I lead a community of bookworms who seek pleasure in knowledge, productivity, and tech. As the lead volunteer at Headstart's pan-India initiatives, I offer guidance to startups.

I started as a student entrepreneur in 2011, and since then, I've built 2 ecosystems, exited 3 startups, inspired 100s in 30+ stage talks, and helped 30+ startups grow in their early stages.

With all the new trends and markets emerging every year in the business ecosystem, I've had my fair share of learning and growing my expertise.

And bringing all this in one place is my newsletter - Community Threads. A space where I share my expertise, real-life experience, and strategies on how you can build and monetize a community.

But even with all this happening, I felt there was so much more I could share with my community. That's when the idea of a podcast - Unscripted Tales popped up. In it, I chitchat and squeeze exclusive industry insights from experts and friends from a diverse industry.
