The man behind Luna
Three questions with Arun Firodia, the author of Innovation On Two Wheels
Q. What was your experience of writing the book and why did you name the book Innovation on
Two Wheels?
A.I wrote the book on innovation banking on my own experience — personal and professional. I have written the book to inspire upcoming entrepreneurs and share a vision, which they can take beyond horizons and make business a success. It’s my journey from the s. Innovation isn’t inborn. It needs to be cultivated as an entrepreneur. It’s important that you start off well and should have clear plans for the present and a vision. Add hard work to that and you have a formula for success. However, luck and timing might play an important part in the enterprise as well. Thus, one should always keep looking for opportunities and seize the moments that could have a game-changing impact. The book is also to encourage new talents who should be given a chance to shine in the market. I kept the tile because it’s about innovation on two wheels — it’s about my two-wheeler company.
