LAKSHAY CHOPRA K

Business Development Learner | Specializing in Entrepreneurship & HRM

Myself Lakshay Chopra, a BBA (Hons.) student at GLS University with a major in Entrepreneurship and a minor in Human Resource Management. I am deeply passionate about creating value at the intersection of innovation, strategy, and people-centered impact. My academic foundation is strengthened by a diverse portfolio of industry-recognized certifications and real-world project experiences that reflect my commitment to continuous learning, adaptability, and sustainable growth.

My skill set has been shaped through rigorous coursework and practical application in areas such as Agile Project Management, Strategic Business Planning, Digital Marketing, Customer Experience Optimization, and Data-Driven Decision Making. I’ve completed professional certifications from institutions like HP LIFE, Infosys Springboard, Google Digital Academy, and the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business. These credentials have equipped me with cross-functional capabilities—from developing Minimum Viable Products using Scrum and Kanban workflows, to executing marketing strategies with tools like Google Analytics and Search Console, to designing scalable growth systems grounded in strong business acumen and milestone management.

As a certified practitioner in Prompt Engineering, I’ve gained experience working with large language models and workflow automation, which has enhanced my ability to integrate AI tools into both strategic planning and daily productivity. My proficiency in Notion, advanced Excel dashboards, cloud-integrated collaboration platforms, and critical thinking frameworks further supports my goal of becoming an operations-oriented leader who thrives on optimization, clarity, and innovation.

Beyond technical competencies, I have a strong orientation toward leadership and values-driven impact. My project on plastic pollution and e-waste management, awarded 1st Prize by the Centre for Environment Education, showcased my ability to lead, collaborate, and advocate for environmental responsibility using the lens of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). My exposure to retail strategy, advertising ecosystems, emotional intelligence, and time management has helped me develop a balanced approach to execution, prioritization, and empathy—all critical traits in high-performance and entrepreneurial environments.

I aim to build a career that combines entrepreneurial thinking with systems-level strategy—whether in a corporate innovation unit, a digital startup, or a social enterprise. I thrive in environments that reward curiosity, analytical rigor, and human-centered solutions. With a mindset rooted in growth, collaboration, and resilience, I’m preparing for a future where businesses are not just profitable—but purposeful.

Let’s connect if you’re working on initiatives that align with entrepreneurship, sustainable innovation, digital transformation, or talent and team development. I’m always open to meaningful conversations and collaboration.

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."

“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."

"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."
