In this episode, Paul chats with Akshay Verma, one of the co-founders of FITPASS. FITPASS provides access to over 7500 gyms and fitness studios across more than 40 cities in India. Akshay, previously involved in football and cricket, harbored a passion for physical activity. It wasn't until his time as an investment banker that he seriously considered a fitness career. A joint effort with his younger sister culminated in a fitness platform aimed at motivating the people of India toward a more active lifestyle.

FITPASS is India’s largest app-based full-stack corporate wellbeing and engagement platform that is making fitness affordable, accessible, and fun through technology, data, and intelligence.

Tune in to hear Akshay share insights about the top challenges of building a fitness business in India, building trust as an entrepreneur, how FITPASS leverages technology, and working with insurance companies to make fitness included in coverage.
