It indeed takes a village to reimagine and realise a world where everyone enjoys agency, choice and dignity. We are extremely thrilled to be part of this dialogue with Think Collective. Let’s shape this future together! Thanks, Anjali Hans for sharing this wonderful article. Beckn Protocol
This year, we published Think Scale, Think Speed and Think Sustain as companions on the journey to impact at scale. These books are by our side as we learn from thinkers and practitioners from around the world, reimagine possibilities and embark on audacious endeavours. Alongside, we wanted to open up a space for all of us to pause, reflect and reimagine. This has come alive as Think Collective – a community of thinkers who care deeply about tackling social problems with exponential change, learning from the lived experiences of doers and working towards a shared vision.

This Independence Day, we celebrate the power of collective progress. Our journey is about creating a digital future where everyone has the opportunity to thrive. Independence for us means the power to choose, to innovate, and to participate in a digital landscape that is inclusive and accessible to all. Together, let's keep building bridges across the digital world, paving the way for a future filled with possibilities. Happy Independence Day! Beckn Protocol

Cheers to an enriching dialogue on agency and diversity! Super excited for future collaborations and continued shared insights. 💜🌟 Societal Thinking Beckn Protocol
At Communiti, a community was brewing yesterday. When people with aligned values come together, the conversations are sure to be thought-provoking. That was what exactly happened when the teams at Beckn Protocol/FIDE and Societal Thinking indulged in conversations around agency and diversity as a collective. The informal nature of the space helped all of us keep the conversations candid yet grounded resulting in diverse and deep perspectives. We would like to thank the team at Beckn Protocol for their time, energy and insights. We look forward to doing this again soon!

Change sustains when new routines become commonplace! #exponentialchange #beckn
"Change is about noticing what’s no longer working and stepping out of the familiar, imprisoning patterns", says Edith Eva Eger in her book, The Choice. #Change sustains when new routines become commonplace. It is the mundane that lasts and scales, and not the exciting or the thrilling. Here's Rajeesh Menon, Head of Growth at FIDE reading an excerpt from our recently launched book from the Think Series, Think Sustain.

This could have been an extravagant and inspiring dev blog. Instead, we got you a #dayinthelife of Ravi Prakash, our Head of Architecture and Priyanka Yadav, our Project Manager who are trying to stress test the new engineering strategy to make sure we are not caught up in processes and losing sight of outcomes. #truestory So, here’s the STRESS TEST, as designed by Ravi. 😅📈 (And oh, the names are purely coincidental ;)) How does the Engineering Division operate when?? #13reasonswhy LEVEL 1 #warmup 1. Alice, a volunteer created an issue in one of the product repos on Beckn Github. 2. Bob, a volunteer started a discussion thread on GitHub in one of the spec repos to update the core spec to include "price negotiation". 3. Protocol got upgraded from 1.1 to 1.2. 4. Ansha has scheduled an online hackathon in 30 days. Estimated participation: 200-250 people LEVEL 2 #hustlehard 5. A new Flow was added: Experience Center is supposed to have an admin console by May 27th. All pipelines are full at the moment. 6. There is a demo that we are supposed to present on stage in July at MIT Media Lab. All we have are 10 lines that describe the outcome. 7. Sujith has asked for a Tech Debt analysis across all projects by the end of the month. 8. One of the mission stakeholders has asked for a custom feature in one of the apps. 9. A new domain called "oceanography" was introduced in the ecosystem that wants to do a POC with FIDE. LEVEL 3 #stuffofnightmares 10. Pramod is going on a roadshow across the US. He may meet startups and accelerators, speak at universities, talk to policymakers etc. He may demo any app at any time. 11. Sujith is in the US. While prepping for his meeting, he found one of the apps had a bug. He puts it in an email. It's 9:00 pm at night in India. Sujith's meeting is at 7:00 am IST. We have 10 hours to fix the bug. The bug requires an AI expert. 12. 20 stakeholders have gathered in a room to get the first real commercial transaction using Beckn in a single day. An activity typically that we call "War Room" or "Win Room". 13. "GPT 4o" was released recently with a major global impact. We need to ride this wave. Ravi asks Sujith: Do we need any more? :) sujith nair: Can it get any worse?! THE END 👻😌 This post is dedicated to all the sleep-deprived engineering teams across the world who are working on the bleeding edge of awesome and slightly losing their minds in the process. You're awesome! 🙌 #hustle #build #exponential #DisproportionateOutputs #Beckn #FIDE Pramod Varma Beckn Protocol Mayur Virendra Faiz Mohammed Bharath Shankar Ganapathy Meenakshi Rampati
