Hi, I’m Manan—a budding builder, connector, and storyteller at heart. I’m on a mission to help startups—especially MSMEs and early-stage ventures—find their spark and momentum, both at home and around the globe.

As a marketing and growth specialist, I love digging into the why behind what makes customers tick. Whether it's architecting digital strategies, making data meet creativity, or carving out a growth playbook from scratch—my goal is to help brands grow with speed, agility, and a voice that resonates.

I also dive deep as an AI consultant—making sense of how tech can actually add value. From choosing the right tools to applying smart automations, I help startups move from “what if” to “what works,” all while keeping things punchy and understandable.

My passion truly shines through in networking and events. I believe meaningful connections are where ideas come to life. My work has focused on creating spaces—online and offline—where founders, mentors, investors, and curious minds can share stories, insight, and the occasional “a-ha” momentum. Whether it’s panels, meetups, or community campaigns, I thrive on crafting experiences that bring people—and perspectives—together.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of supporting MSMEs and globally minded startups, helping them navigate early-stage challenges, sharpen their positioning, and tap into growth networks that go beyond borders.

Walking always in eChai Events feels like a natural fit. I deeply respect how eChai builds “rooms” where founders truly connect—rooms that span disciplines, geographies, and stages . That’s the same energy I bring: honesty, collaboration, and always being rooted in real & human conversations.
