The US-based professional networking site LinkedIn has named Cuttack’s Sindhu Biswal among the ‘Top-5 Creators to Follow ‘. With this, he became the first person from Odisha to be featured in the list.
The announcement was made by Daniel Roth, Editor-in-Chief and Vice President at LinkedIn, three days ago.
“It came as a surprise for me. I would like to thank LinkedIn for the ranking,” said Sindhu after being named as the top creator.
“I created a video series on ‘how to grow a startup’ last year. Of these videos, one video which was based on ‘what are the things that first time founders should do?’ got a good traction.. It was also picked up by LinkedIn VP helping me to get featured in their Creator Programme,” he added.
An MBA graduate, Sindhu has a YouTube channel, on which he describes himself as a ‘polymath'.
On his channel, he discusses startups, marketing, life, philosophy, vulnerabilities, and ‘anything new I come across with’.
He currently works as a Growth Head at a Bengaluru-based company and has over 15,000 followers and more than 500 connections on LinkedIn.
“It came as a surprise for me. I would like to thank LinkedIn for the ranking,” said Sindhu after being named as the top creator.
