Founder & CEO, Plutomen

I'm a young and energetic entrepreneur, driven by intellectual curiosity and a relentless pursuit of knowledge. Technology has always fascinated me, and I thrive on exploring innovative ideas, no matter how challenging they may be.

In 2012, I founded Oryden Techlabs, a design and technology lab based in Ahmedabad. We specialized in AR and VR, 3D and 2D design, and quickly became a major player in the design space in India. Our expertise catered to industries such as Real Estate, Industrial Sector, Healthcare, and Education. In 2015, I was thrilled when Squareyards, a real estate startup focused on the NRI segment, acquired Oryden Techlabs. This acquisition opened up exciting new opportunities for me.

At Squareyards, I was appointed as the Head of E-Commerce and also took on the role of Business Head for Scapesworks, a cutting-edge technology marketing vertical in the Real Estate industry. It was an exhilarating experience, as I led teams and contributed to the growth of the organization.

In 2016, I decided to embark on a new venture and founded Plutomen, a DIPP registered Start-up in the Emerging Technology field of eXtended Reality (AR/VR/MR). My vision for Plutomen was to create solutions that empower companies to achieve better productivity, cost optimization, and customer satisfaction. Leveraging our experience in building scalable solutions for industrial enterprises, I strategically positioned Plutomen as a products-oriented company.

Prior to my entrepreneurial journey, I gained valuable experience at companies like Hindustan National Glass (HNG), KHS, and Reliance Retail. These experiences sharpened my skills in strategy formation, team building, production planning, process excellence, analytics, and budgeting.

As the CEO of Plutomen, I am constantly pushing the boundaries of technology to drive innovation and success. Our transition from a service-oriented company to a products-oriented powerhouse has been a testament to our dedication and expertise. I am proud to lead a team of talented individuals who share my passion for creating revolutionary solutions in the emerging technology space.

Connect with me on LinkedIn to stay updated on the latest advancements in eXtended Reality (AR/VR/MR) and witness firsthand how Plutomen is revolutionizing industries through cutting-edge technology. Together, let's create frontline forces of the future!

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“You don’t plan to build a company via eChai. You just keep showing up … and one day, you realize you did.” I’ve known Jatin since 2012, when I was still deciding what kind of second innings I wanted to play as an entrepreneur. Over the years, through events, chai breaks, intros, and seemingly small conversations, eChai helped shape not just Upsquare but also refined the lens through which we see collaboration. At Upsquare, we’ve hired talent, met partners, discovered co-investors, and built lifelong friendships. One of our joint ventures exists today only because a casual eChai memory sparked a deeper trust. Now, as we build House of Starts — our venture builder — eChai continues to fuel our mission: co-creating a shared future. eChai isn’t just a startup network. It’s a trust network. And for business builders like me, that makes all the difference."

"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.

"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."
