Akash Gupta

Akash Gupta is the founder and CEO of Zypp Electric, a Gurgaon-based Electric Mobility startup enabling livelihoods of the Indian gig economy. Akash started his life from a middle class family in Jaipur but with big dreams to become an entrepreneur.

After 10 years of corporate roles in firms like Airtel, Snapdeal, Mobikwik, Akash turned himself into a first-generation entrepreneur. Akash started his career on a salary of Rs. 11k. In 10 years he grew as Marketing Head and later walked away from a crore-plus CTC to build his own startup. Akash doesn't believe in failure, only in pivoting, and that's exactly what got him here, driven by the belief that ambition shouldn't depend on where you start. Akash believes in Hustle, Never give up attitude, high speed execution and building a solid startup culture.

Beyond Zypp, Akash runs his Instagram and YouTube community called KaashSeAkash where he shares nuggets of knowledge to build a startup with his 1mn+ followers across all social media platforms.

Version Infinity is Akash's first book: the story of the moments that shaped him, and the belief that every setback is just another version waiting to be unlocked. This book is for every dreamer, for every one who's stuck in a life, for every one who wants to be entrepreneur with lessons on life, fundraising, culture, team building, zero to one, and scaling a business profitably while starting from nothing.
