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

"eChai is playing biggest role in my personal and professional life together. Its a community where i meet like minded people to share idea and learn from their idea. Even while playing cricket i learn something and i implement something new from that learning. Its my entry point for building network in different countries where my base is not established yet. Personally my only fun activity day in a week is eChai cricket and social."

"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."

"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.
