Shark Tank india 4: anupam mittal Shares Story Of His Cousin’s Accident, Reveals He Carried His Severed Foot In A Bag
Shark anupam mittal shared a personal connection during a pitch, recalling his cousin's accident that resulted in the loss of his foot.
Entrepreneurs Nimish Mehra and Cyril Joe Baby discussed their idea for FUPRO, a company that specializes in high-tech prosthetic devices, on the most recent episode of Shark Tank india 4. The goal of FUPRO, which was to deliver high-quality, reasonably priced prostheses, was more than simply a sales pitch; it was a tale of technical ingenuity, empathy, and empowerment.
The entrepreneurs were questioned by the sharks on the competitive environment and distinctive features of FUPRO's products. In his explanation of the science behind their invention, Cyril emphasized the vital problem of blood circulation after amputation. Blood circulation is disturbed when a limb is removed. These issues are the focus of our prosthetic solutions.
Anupam Mittal's Touching Story
Shark anupam mittal mentioned his connection to the cause during the pitch, citing his cousin's foot-loss accident. He shared, “Some years ago, my cousin came under a train and lost his feet and hand. Unfortunately, I carried his foot in a bag, thinking that they could be attached later. Ultimately, he did have to use prosthetics, but what you’re saying is a real problem, because that’s exactly what he’s going through right now.”
The entrepreneurs told the sharks that one of their co-founders had put more than Rs 2 crore into the company and now controls 40% of it. Following a series of discussions, the purchase was secured when Ritesh Agarwal, Namita Thapar, and Aman Gupta made a combined offer of Rs 60 lakh in return for 4% equity.
Their involvement in 'Shark Tank india 4' has raised awareness of the significance of empathy-driven innovation, and FUPRO's creative approach to prosthetic solutions can change lives.
