Beyond Ideas: The Discipline Of Execution | Prateek Jain | Tedxmotilal Nehru College

Explore the mindset shift from survival to systems-thinking. This talk highlights the importance of execution over ideas, self-belief over doubt, and the resilience needed to grow from local roots to scalable visions. Mr. Prateek Jain is the co-founder of Cartrend Auto Parts, an innovative e-commerce platform dedicated to providing original car spare parts across India. The inspiration behind Cartrend came from a personal experience: when their family’s car broke down, they encountered significant delays at a multi-brand garage due to the unavailability of parts. This challenge highlighted a widespread issue, especially in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities. To address this gap, Prateek, along with his father, Mr. N.K. Jain, launched Cartrend, ensuring easy access to high-quality, genuine components for car owners and retail shopkeepers alike, significantly reducing vehicle downtime.
Under Prateek’s leadership, Cartrend has established its operations in Gurgaon, Delhi, Noida, and Jaipur, with ambitious plans to expand nationwide, revolutionizing car maintenance accessibility and reliability. Recognized for his vision and entrepreneurial drive, Prateek has been featured as one of the Iconic Indian leaders in The Times of India and other prestigious media outlets, including Business Standard and ANI.
Prateek holds an Executive MBA from IIM Calcutta, which has further empowered him with strategic insights to drive Cartrend’s growth and success. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
