Vamsi Udayagiri, Founder and CEO of Hesa, will join Stanford Seed leaders Jeffrey Prickett, Global Director of Stanford Seed, and Harish Arnezath, Regional Director of Stanford Seed South Asia, to discuss how founders build organisations designed for long term scale.
Hyderabad, March 05, 2026: Stanford Seed will host a leadership conversation in Hyderabad focused on one of the most challenging transitions in a company’s growth journey: moving beyond founder led execution to building organisations that scale sustainably.
The in person session titled “Beyond Founder Driven Growth: Building a Company That Scales” will take place on Thursday, 12 March, from 5 PM to 7:30 PM at T Hub, Hyderabad. The event will bring together growth stage founders and chief executives for an interactive discussion on leadership shifts required as companies move from early stage operations to institution level growth.
The conversation will feature Vamsi Udayagiri, Founder and CEO of Hesa, who will share lessons from building and scaling his company. Drawing from his experience, Udayagiri will speak about the operational and leadership challenges founders encounter as organisations expand beyond the early stages of growth.
“Scaling a company is not just about growing revenue; it is about building systems, leaders and a culture that can thrive without the founder at the center of every decision,” said Vamsi Udayagiri, Founder and CEO of Hesa. “I look forward to sharing practical lessons from our journey and engaging with fellow founders who are navigating similar transitions.”
The evening will also include insights from Jeffrey Prickett, Global Director of Stanford Seed, who will present an overview of the Stanford Seed Transformation Program. The ten month programme supports founders and chief executives of growth stage companies with annual revenues between 300,000 dollars and 15 million dollars.
Participants in the program receive leadership development guidance, strategic mentoring and access to a global network designed to help companies scale effectively while building strong organisational systems.
Harish Arnezath, Regional Director of Stanford Seed South Asia, said the initiative is designed to help founders move from founder centric leadership models to organisations built for long term growth.
“The Seed Transformation Program is designed for founders ready to scale with purpose and confidence,” said Harish Arnezath. “We equip business leaders to create ownership driven cultures that sustain systemic growth and build enterprises designed for scale.”
Organised by Stanford Seed, part of the Stanford Graduate School of Business, the Hyderabad session aims to bring founders together for dialogue, peer learning and practical insights that help businesses grow beyond founder driven structures
