Leela Venugopal

Ex program manager intern in Nxtmeet a t-hub based Startup. A 3rd year data science student in MLR institute of technoology.

I am Leela Venugopal, a 3rd-year Data Science Engineering student at MLR Institute of Technology. I worked as a Business Development Intern at Tamada Media for 2.5 months, collaborating with renowned brands like Jio Cinemas and Max Urban Fashion, as well as emerging names like Swetha Telugu Foods, KS Bakers, and Bhanzu. I also served as a Program Manager Intern at NxtMeet, a T-Hub-based startup, focusing on the strategic implementation of their app. As a council member of MLRCIE, the E-Cell and I-Cell of MLRIT, I contribute as a graphic designer and mentor, guiding first-year students on projects and startup incubation.

Additionally, I plan to launch a brand-building company to support small, unorganized businesses. My goal is to connect with entrepreneurs, understand their needs, and provide tailored support to help them grow into established brands. By streamlining operations and offering focused guidance, I aim to create long-term value, foster sustainable growth, and strengthen collaborative relationships within the entrepreneurial community.

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

“I have no hesitation in saying that my association with eChai has been a gateway into the startup ecosystem. Through this platform, I’ve had the opportunity to connect with many young and dynamic entrepreneurs. These interactions have been immensely enriching - I’ve learned a great deal and have always tried to offer guidance whenever approached. It’s a truly symbiotic relationship that I deeply value, and it wouldn’t have been possible without eChai.”

"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 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."
