laksh sharma

co-founder, re-verse.in

I grew up in Kotkapura,a small town in punjab, completing my education through high school with a strong academic record. My career journey began with hands-on experience in the service industry, where I worked as a manager at Papa John's Pizza in Netherlands. There, I learned how to manage operations like deliveries and finances, gaining valuable skills in customer service and efficiency.

After gaining experience in the pizza industry, I decided to pause my college studies to focus on starting my own business. This decision was driven by my passion to create something meaningful and innovative. While living in Europe, I closely observed the clothing market and its extensive export network to over a hundred developed countries such as India and Myanmar. I was particularly fascinated by how they efficiently export used clothes, contributing significantly to the global thrift market. This observation deeply influenced the concept behind my current startup. But i want to take this to next level in my own country.

So i decided to come back india after spending 5 years in Netherlands. Here I worked with my father in Indian textile industry, which gave me insights into manufacturing and managing supply chains. This experience deepened my understanding of business operations and strengthened my determination to succeed as an entrepreneur. On closely analysing how much waste this industry produces the idea for my current startup clicked to me.

Today, I combine my academic background, practical experience, and entrepreneurial spirit to lead my startup towards achieving its goals. My journey reflects my commitment to learning, innovation, risk taking abilities and making a positive impact in the business.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“When we launched LegalWiz.in back in 2016, concept of procuring legal and compliance services through a digital commerce platform wasn't as prominent in India. eChai played a significant role in providing the early adopters, and building significant positioning in the startup fraternity. Overtime, eChai grew to be a massive network of like-minded entrepreneurs and extended that benefit to all the members in a true "co-rise" spirit. I personally love to attend eChai events, learn from subject matter experts who share relatable and actionable insights and experiences. For startup journeys, it is so important to be surrounded by people who can add relevance, perspective, and push you to do better. Most importantly a group of people where you aren't being judged about things going right or wrong, but be a motivational force that keeps you going, yet keeping you in check. eChai is that place for me!”

"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."
