Gorakh Kharat

Director Codefirst Academy

As a Co-founder of CodeFirst Academy, my journey into the world of technology and education has been an exhilarating one. Born out of a passion for both coding and empowering others, CodeFirst Academy aims to democratize access to coding education and bridge the gap between aspiration and opportunity in the tech industry.

Driven by a desire to change this narrative, I, along with my fellow co-founders, embarked on a mission to make coding education more inclusive and accessible. We envisioned a platform where individuals from all backgrounds could learn and thrive, regardless of their prior experience or resources.

At CodeFirst Academy, we prioritize not only teaching technical skills but also fostering a supportive and collaborative learning environment. Through our comprehensive curriculum, personalized mentorship, and hands-on projects, we empower our students to become proficient coders and confident problem solvers.

One of the most rewarding aspects of being a co-founder of CodeFirst Academy is witnessing the transformation of our students. Seeing them overcome challenges, unlock their potential, and embark on successful careers in the tech industry reaffirms our belief in the power of education to change lives.

As we continue to grow and evolve, our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion remains unwavering. We strive to break down barriers, challenge stereotypes, and create a more equitable tech landscape where everyone has the opportunity to thrive.

In essence, my role as a co-founder of CodeFirst Academy is not just about building a successful business; it's about creating a movement that empowers individuals to shape their futures and make a positive impact on the world through technology. And in that journey, I find both purpose and fulfillment.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”

"For me, eChai is a second home. I've been associated with it since the early days, when it was already setting a different tone for how startup communities could work. As a traditional business owner entering the new-age D2C space, eChai supported me in every direction. Over the years, it became my window to the startup world — and also gave me lifelong friends who continue to show up, for business and beyond."
