Zero to One, Unfiltered: Building Neurostellar

Unfiltered Conversation with Dhanushya Ramesh, Co-founder & COO, Neurostellar Neurostellar started as a wearable EEG device to fix epilepsy misdiagnosis in India, then became Orbit, a smart headband that reads brain activity and heart signals to give real-time insight into focus, stress, and mental fatigue. It's been tested by 500+ beta users, picked up by chess grandmasters, and earned a Letter of Intent from the Indian Air Force. This is not a polished pitch. It's a real conversation on what it actually takes to build hardware and AI together in India: how the idea got validated, how the product changed after the first real user feedback, how you find a first customer for something this new, and what nobody tells you about building deep tech from zero. Come with questions. This is a conversational, no-fluff session for builders who want tactical insight, not a highlight reel. What we'll cover: Who should attend: Early-stage founders, AI/hardware builders, and GTM/product folks who want honest, tactical insight over polished takeaways. This session is hosted by AI Learn Circle, a 3,000-4,000 member community of AI builders and founders across India, in partnership with Quashbugs.
