  • Sorry about the map of India mix-up in the video. It wasn't intentional. We just didn't give the map a proper check before we published the video. Thanks for understanding!

    She is incredibly focused on her vision,a super hustler. Truly inspirational. She is absolutely clear in her vision for her company and will do the tough hard slog to make the best team come on board . Look forward a few years down to see her company make a big successful splash in the maritime industry ..
  • Love it when founders are willing to share so much details. Very well done. Felt like I was watching CBC video.
  • Wow, this kind of boat is needed in the Philippines to reduce land traffic and pollution, especially because the Philippines is an archipelago country. This is exactly what we need for sea ambulance services.
  • Wow, the vision of Sampriti to map out the water just blew my mind. Thanks for finding her and showing to the world. Super inspiring!!
  • @dinadc1
    It depends on which direction we exert our energy. She pushed her way through to her dream! Great role model to all young and passion chasing people .
  • @jasha9sandhu
    She is such a good storyteller - the way she narrates her own story is phenomenal, so smooth & inspiring.
  • @NeildaGagne
    Sampriti is among the most inspirational people I've ever met, and I have the privilege of calling her my friend. I remember when we were both working in the basement at Boost VC, sharing our grand visions of the future. It's amazing how much grit this woman has; I have no doubt how much she'll impact this world.
  • Dear Sampriti .... it is an unbelievable story of your achievement in underwater drone concept & finally making your vision a reality. Today it can become a dream of underwater exploration & mapping etc. a reality. Being from Kolkata & a graduate in Physics from Visva Bharati University, I can appreciate your progress in life with a dream in unknown territory of floors of rivers, seas & oceans. Many great things will come out from your work to benefit human beings of today & tomorrow. Stay the course & never quit your dreams. Best wishes to you for the many days to come.

    whoaa she is Bengali ! amazing ! And being from the same society and city I can totally relate to that early internet era when we had very little idea about how to do things , very little inspiration and how everything felt far far off. When simply someone teaching you how to connect to internet was a huge morale boost. Flash forward today there is an overflow of information. Gosh she has a will of steel to reach to that level. HUGE respect.

    Samprithi epitomizes the silicon valley spirit. Great interview and what an inspiring story.
  • @mainmain5303
    I am nothing like her. But her story is like... most people's story...but on that usual foundation she's building such an incredible legacy. It's fantastic. "Go girl". And it's the first time I shouted that phrase in my life.
  • @TiffInTech
    Wow this is amazing! What an inspiring story!!
  • I am so happy it all worked out in the way she wanted!.. congratulations on the hard working part. I am an indian and when I was first time in south africa, it was surprised everybody says "how is it!" when we met in streets.
  • @soulmate805
    This girl's visions is beyond meaning. Love how she connect everything together from ocean to land to space. This is not just a boating company she's building, more of a revolutionary transportations on water...
  • Marina thanks a lot for this super informative interview ❤, very inspiring and motivating, it is so amazing how an ordinary girl from Kolkata started her dream project with her persistence, determination. Wish Sampriti great success in her work and future projects🙏
  • @praamb9119
