Karan Patadiya

Student, Department of Public Policy and Governance, B. K. School of Professional and Management Studies, Gujarat University

A dedicated and accomplished student with a strong record of academic excellence and extracurricular achievements, I have been recognized with numerous awards, including the prestigious Academic Excellence Award and Outstanding Achiever Award at DPPG, BKSPMS. I was granted the Niswarth Scholarship for exceptional academic performance, resulting in a 100% fee waiver for postgraduate studies. My diverse experiences span internships with prominent organizations such as FICCI, JVDN International, Vardhan Consulting Engineers, and DRDO, where I honed skills in project management, international trade, finance, and research.

In addition to my professional experiences, I have actively contributed to academic and creative projects, earning top accolades in poster presentations and art competitions. As a creative design coordinator and active member of various committees, I have demonstrated leadership and organizational skills, successfully managing events and publications. My commitment to social service is reflected in my volunteer work with NSS, where I spearheaded district-level cleanliness drives and social issue rallies.

I am eager to leverage my skills and experiences in a dynamic professional environment.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"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.

“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.”

"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."
