AKASH AKASH

Student

I'm Akash Madanu, a driven third-year Computer Science and Engineering student at Christ University, Bangalore. While I'm passionate about mastering the technical aspects of software development, my true calling lies in using technology to create positive change.

Entrepreneurship and innovation fuel my fire. I see myself at the forefront of the startup ecosystem, tackling challenges and building solutions that make a real difference. Whether it's developing groundbreaking software or co-founding a disruptive venture, I'm eager to contribute to the vibrant startup scene in India.

My technical skills are constantly evolving, but what truly sets me apart is my desire to bridge the gap between technology and social impact. I envision myself leveraging my coding expertise to develop solutions that address social needs or contribute to impactful community projects.

Continuous learning is my mantra. In my free time, you'll find me devouring books on business, personal development, and self-improvement. This dedication to growth ensures I'm constantly refining my skills and expanding my perspective – all with the goal of becoming a well-rounded entrepreneur ready to make a mark.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"eChai isn’t just a startup community … it’s a mindset . eChai has been one of the most impactful communities in my entrepreneurial journey. It’s been a turning point . In a world where building something can often feel isolating, eChai gave me a sense of belonging. I’ve found mentors, collaborators, and friends here — people who genuinely want to see you succeed. It’s a space where ideas are challenged, actions are celebrated, and founders grow not just in scale, but in clarity and confidence. From late-night ideas to early-morning pitches, this community has quietly but powerfully shaped the way I build, think, and dream. I’ll always be grateful for the way eChai creates spaces where founders don’t just grow businesses — they grow together."

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

"eChai has played a truly pivotal role in HummingBird’s journey — even before Day Zero. From ideation to establishment and into growth, it’s been a constant source of support. It connected me with incredible people who’ve become more than just friends. One of the biggest reasons I chose to stay in Ahmedabad is because of the eChai community. It has shaped my growth — both personally and professionally — in ways that are hard to articulate. Honestly, words fall short when I try to express what eChai means to me. I’m deeply thankful and forever grateful to eChai for being such an integral part of my journey."
