The art of selling isn't simple, but Kishore Biyani - the legendary 'father of modern retail' in India; Vidit Aatrey - Co-Founder of the $5 billion dollar e-commerce company Meesho, and Sujeet Kumar - Founder of the B2B industry leader Udaan - make it look easy.

They don't always agree, though...

Expect raw, in-depth, and sometimes heated insights into why some products fly off the (virtual) shelves while others fail, successes and failures on the journey to growing multi-billion dollar businesses, and why e-commerce is inescapable - we either sell or get sold to.
