Most consumer hardware companies don’t struggle to build the product - they struggle to build a business around it.
In this session, Hardware Velocity brings together Rathi Srinivas and Madhavi Gavini, co-founders of Droplette (scaled to ~$40M in revenue), to share what they’ve learned building a consumer hardware company and what becomes difficult as you move from early traction to scale.
A candid discussion on how early signals, product decisions, and business assumptions shape what’s possible later.
What to expect
- Lessons on early demand vs durable demand
- Where initial traction can be misleading
- How product and business decisions start to constrain growth
- Practical insights from building and scaling a consumer hardware company
- Interactive discussion with time for Q&A
Speakers
Rathi Srinivas - Co-Founder, Droplette
