Ketan Chandak

Co-Founder, Adster Technologies

Hello!
First time entrepreneur here - working on a mission to make ads smarter, hyperscale revenues for apps and websites and take a stab at building a truly global SaaS company from India!
I've been in the consumer software industry for a long time now, started my stint at Truecaller(when it was still a decently small startup), where we built core ads and data products for 200Mn+ user-base.
Then, I moved to Singapore and started working for Twitter, and that is where I truly saw scale. Worked on core search and home timeline generation products from the data and ML side of things.

Adster is a brainchild that came about when I was helping some marquee digital publishers in India with a few SaaS products. We recently(Aug-23) raised a seed round($1 Mn) from Waterbridge Ventures(https://waterbridge.vc/our-founders) to grow the company!

Education wise - I have a Bachelors in Computer Science and a Masters in Mathematics from BITS Pilani.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"After moving back from the USA, eChai became my go-to space to learn how the Indian startup ecosystem works. It offered direct exposure to startup thinking and a community that openly shares business insights. What stood out was how easy it was to connect, learn, and grow through real conversations. As we built our IT hardware rentals business, eChai helped us find our niche and refine our path. Proud and grateful to be part of this amazing community."
