Maharsh Shah

Co-Founder, MealPe

Hey there! I'm Maharsh, a tech enthusiast with a knack for turning innovative ideas into reality. My journey started with a Bachelor's in Technology in Computer Science and Engineering from Nirma University, where I laid the foundation for an exciting career in the tech world.

I took a deep dive into the world of blockchain by founding NextBlock Technologies PVT LTD. We embarked on an exciting venture, crafting NeoFanTasy - a fan engagement platform tailored for the dynamic sports industry. Alongside, we provided cutting-edge blockchain development and consulting services, solidifying our presence in the tech ecosystem.

Eager for a new challenge, I joined forces with my mentor, Satya Mehta, to co-found MealPe Online Food Ordering POS Pvt Ltd. At MealPe, we're on a mission to redefine the way we experience food. Imagine a world where your favorite flavors are just a tap away, where local food spots near your workplace become your go-to feast. With MealPe, you've got a buffet of choices right at your fingertips, all in an easy-to-use app.

But MealPe is more than just a menu on your phone - it's a game-changer for your break time. It's not just about ordering - you can even reschedule meals. Picture this: you place your order, reach the food spot, and your meal is ready and waiting. No more waiting, no more fuss. Just deliciousness waiting for you to dig in.

I'm thrilled to be at the forefront of this exciting venture, shaping the way people experience food on a daily basis. Join me on this journey towards a more convenient and delightful dining experience with MealPe! 🍔📲

The eChai Effect - In Their Words

"At DevX.Work, we’ve greatly benefited from our association with eChai. Their events and networking forums have connected us with high-potential startups, ecosystem leaders, and innovation-driven professionals — many of whom have become valuable partners, collaborators, and even clients. What stands out most is the openness and accessibility of the community — whether you're an early-stage founder or an experienced entrepreneur, eChai provides a welcoming space to learn, collaborate, and grow. It's more than just a network — it's a catalyst for real, collaborative growth. We’re proud to be part of the eChai community. Highly recommended for any organization aiming to grow within the startup space."

Co-Founder, DevX

“eChai has been that turning point in my journey. It gave me a platform when I wasn’t looking for visibility but needed direction. Over the years, it became more than just a network. It became my tribe; a place where conversations sparked collaborations, and strangers became trusted sounding boards. What I value most is how effortlessly eChai brings people together - no airs, no filters, just genuine people with shared dreams. I owe a lot to this community and to Jatin, whose consistency and belief in people have shaped journeys like mine. Forever grateful to be part of something so real.”

“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."
