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

"I attended my first eChai event 3 yrs back, and no one knew me in the market. Over the next three years, eChai didn’t only help me with knowledge or networking, but it gave me an identity from being unknown to now being recognized by a group of inspirational entrepreneurs connected with eChai, who have been gracious enough to acknowledge me and Digipple."

"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."

"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."
