About Pranav Manie

Hi! I\'m currently working on media and content initiatives at Zerodha, doing a lot of writing on stuff I generally nerd about (and then some). I mostly work on the Markets by Zerodha team, where we make the chaos of the global economy simpler to understand.Before this, I was in consulting. I made dashboards and models for various clients at Bain Capability Network, and that gave me an edge when it comes to data.I have also been running Hot Chips: a newsletter with subscribers, where I write deep dives at the intersection of culture and data. I\'m less active on the newsletter these days, but that\'s because I spend my nights being a DJ in the Bangalore scene: I love playing hip-hop and UK bass!Always up for a chat about the following: NBA, music, competition and innovation policy, writing, and where to find the best donne biryani :)
