AI expert | GenAI proponent | Gaming/Media enthusiast | Robotics afficionado

I am a Sci-fi driven tech entrepreneur, and I decided to found an AI company after working on the alpha testing phase of WonderDynamics.

Building a company without staff was seen as something relatively improbable, but with compute power and GenAI protocols today, it is possible to run a lean team that can leverage this technology to amplify and scale company workflows. Along with my co-founder we decided to startup to have an enterprise to explore AI and Robotics as the industry ballooned overnight. Working to build some other multinational AI infrastructure only to then become redundant myself seemed like a bleak future, so I took up the alternative.

Before starting up I had worked in the services sector in India for a few years before doing my Master's degree in Management from ESCP, an European University getting a comprehensive view of Global Business Strategy. Communication and teamwork are the cornerstone of any succesful venture, but in today's world the tech is also a crucial aspect of enterprise, and I feel we are poised for a new era of industry.

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."
