Jyoti Prakash

Marine Engineer | Small Businesses Owner | Aspiring Entrepreneur

With 9 years of experience as a Marine Engineer, I’ve built a career in the shipping industry. My time at sea has shaped my discipline, problem-solving skills, and ability to handle high-pressure situations.

Beyond my maritime career, I’ve explored entrepreneurship by running small businesses, including a Gym, café, restaurant, and a cloud kitchen. These ventures have given me hands-on experience in business operations, customer engagement, and market challenges.

Now, I’m transitioning into the world of startups, working on a mobility-based business model in the growing EV sector. My goal is to build innovative solutions that address real-world challenges while making an impact in the mobility and service industry.

I’m always open to networking, collaborations, and discussions on business, technology, and entrepreneurship. Feel free to connect!

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”

"From late-night brainstorming over chai to early morning founder calls, eChai has been more than just a network for me; it’s been home base for ideas, impact, and inspiration. What started as a simple meetup years ago turned into a powerful movement, connecting founders, creators, and dreamers. I’ve had the privilege of seeing startups find product-market fit, marketers (like me) find unexpected collaborations, and most importantly, people finding their tribe. संगच्छध्वं संवदध्वं – Let us move together, speak together. It’s not just a verse from the Rigveda — it’s how Jatin and the entire eChai community truly operate. We don’t just network, we grow together. Forever grateful to be a part of the eChai Effect.

“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!”
