Starting a jet company against the odds

We meet the founder of one of India’s largest private aviation companies who overcame several life challenges before starting the business.

After doctors initially told her she had months to live, Indian entrepreneur Kanika Tekriwal went on to build JetSetGo, one of the country’s largest private aviation marketplaces. She talks about overcoming illness, sexism and family opposition to launch her company.
